Before
complete original carrier Fin(6);ALREADY canonical original edge list=[[0, 1], [0, 3], [2, 3]]
After
loop-free unique original edges=3<=10;all edge subsets have mask0 through7
Conditions: none
This family's bounds are n≤12 and at most10 edges,permitting exhaustive enumeration.Do not reuse the earlier n30 guard.Input endpoints and edges must already be canonical,with indices bound to original edges and no loops or duplicates.
