The similarity scan picks its dot product per machine, and the NEON one
is the kernel that ships to the phone and the tablet — and the one a
desktop cargo test never executes. A wrong lane index or a mishandled
tail there is a silent wrong answer on exactly the devices nobody runs
the suite on, which is a poor place for the only untested code path.
dr-face carries no weights and touches no display, so its tests are a
plain ARM64 binary that runs under adb shell with nothing installed.
The script builds it against the SDK's newest NDK, pushes it, runs it
and cleans up. It checks for the device first, so a tablet that is not
plugged in costs a second rather than the two minutes it takes to
compile for it.
Not wired into CI, which has no device attached.
