On the Final Twist job, where in the pipeline did a generated Gaussian-splat world sit, what came in and out, and what outcome do the two accounts state?

Promise (producer) and World Labs (vendor) describe the same job: ten crime-scene environments rebuilt from low-quality archival photos for Harlan Coben's Final Twist. Steps: AI restoration of the images, a World Labs tool producing a Gaussian splat, artist rebuild of geometry and textures, optimisation, display on a 16K LED wall. The outcomes stated are ten environments and qualitative benefits (natural lighting, presence); no time, cost, shot or quality number is given by either page. The two pages disagree on naming (a "tool from World Labs" versus Marble) and carry different dates.
