How it is scored

Resolves VERIFIED if Quantinuum has, by 31 Dec 2030, shipped or publicly operated a system matching the Apollo specification (universal, fully fault-tolerant, circuits of millions of gates) -- confirmed by a Quantinuum announcement plus independent technical reporting. Note the press release's own text separately targets Apollo itself for 2029, one year ahead of the “by 2030” headline claim; both dates are logged so either can be checked against what actually ships. PARTIALLY_VERIFIED if an earlier-generation system (Helios, Sol) ships on schedule but Apollo itself is delayed past 2030. NOT_VERIFIED otherwise.
