Observe
Correct advances from 0/0 and Placed from 0/16 as each component is matched to the fixture's reference-model layer.
Explain
Layer assignment follows primary responsibility: sensing, transport, processing, and application behavior occupy different abstraction levels even when products combine them.
Technical boundaries. Each fixture has one scoring key based on primary responsibility. Real products may combine several layers or implement security and management across them; the game does not evaluate traffic behavior, failure modes, deployment topology or vendor-specific architecture.
