+"""Comprehensive unit test for B2 FP8 tensor-core indexer scoring + top-k.
+
+Tests ALL components of the B2 pipeline at production values:
+  1. FP8 Q quantization inside the kernel (BF16→FP8 per-row)
+  2. FP8 GEMM via tcgen05 tensor cores (Q × K^T)
+  3. Dequant + ReLU + weighted sum
+  4. Top-k selection
+  5. End-to-end: compare with FP32 reference einsum
+
+Production sizes: n_ih=64, ihd=128, top_k=1024, n_comp=128..8192.
+No shortcuts. No fallbacks. No toy values.
