Choosing Ilford HP5 Plus showed an inverted grey frame. So did Double-X.
They are negatives, and upstream leaves `target_print` null on every
monochrome stock, so nothing was ever printed and the scan was all there was.
A colour negative at least announces itself -- the orange mask says plainly
that you are looking at a negative. A monochrome one just looks broken.
They print on Kodak 2302 now, which is a monochrome print film and is what
such a negative is actually printed onto; Double-X onto 2302 is the standard
cine chain. For the Ilford stocks it stands in for an Ilford paper, which
nobody has measured, and is at least the right kind of material.
The scan is still reachable through the Scanned/Printed toggle. It is a thing
to choose now rather than the only thing on offer.
`every_shipped_stock_bakes` did not catch this, and could not: it derives
"should this be inverted?" from the stock's kind *and whether it names a
paper*, so it looked at an inverted HP5, concluded that was right for an
unprinted negative, and passed. The assertion was self-consistent and the
situation was still wrong. The new test asserts the thing that actually
matters -- a camera negative must name a paper, that paper must be a printing
stock, and it must be the same kind of material, so a monochrome negative
cannot end up on colour paper.
