**Indexed reads on an ordinary `Array` no longer re-prove a loop-invariant receiver on every element.**

An indexed read cost **87 instructions per element** — against 6 for the same arithmetic on a `Float64Array` and 16 for node — and none of it was a runtime call. 56 of the 87 were loop-invariant receiver revalidation re-executed every iteration: the NaN-box tag and handle-band test, the forwarding-flag follow, and a six-load live-head guard.

perry already had tiers that hoist that proof into the loop preheader. They were declining at one gate, `array_static_type_excluded` — a *declared static type* test in front of a tier that is otherwise fully runtime-guarded — so `const a: number[]` got it and plain `new Array(400)`, which infers `Array<any>`, did not. Ordinary JavaScript never reached the tier it already had.

Separately, `a[i] += 1` cost **948** instructions per element, 3.7× the identical `a[i] = a[i] + 1`, and no annotation helped: the compound-assignment spill temporaries were minted as `Type::Any`, erasing the receiver's array-ness and the index's integer-ness before codegen saw the statement.

Array read **87 → 13.5** (node 16.3), `a[i] += 1` **948 → 273**, `a[i] += b[i]` **1025 → 347**. A particle simulation over four numeric arrays spends **60.9% fewer instructions** and **59% less peak RSS**. The bare loop and both `Float64Array` paths are unchanged to the instruction.

**Stores to an ordinary `Array` element no longer re-prove a loop-invariant receiver on every element.**

An indexed write cost **105 instructions per element** — against 8 for the same store to a `Float64Array` and 12 for node — with zero runtime calls. **51 of the 105 were loop-invariant** receiver revalidation, and a further 42 was a write-barrier decision provable away from the value's type.

This widens the store admission the way #10731 widened reads. The gate was `has_materialization_hazard`, which a trailing `console.log` is enough to set.

`a[i] = k + i` **105 → 17.4**, `a[i] = a[i] + 1` **256 → 24.5** (node 18.7), `a[i] = a[i] + b[i]` **333 → 35.9**. The bare loop, both `Float64Array` paths and the indexed read are unchanged to the instruction.

Note this moves none of the five real programs in #10695 — their loop bodies are multi-statement or contain calls, which no current tier admits (#10741) — and `a[i] += 1` is unaffected because its lowering is two statements (#10743).

Correct the compound-assignment statement count.

a[i] += 1 emits two temporary declarations and the final assignment expression. It therefore produces three statements, not two. Use “multiple statements” to describe the tier limitation.

Proposed fix
-— and `a[i] += 1` is unaffected because its lowering is two statements (`#10743`).

/// `plain_array_index_guard`. This is what makes a store INTO A HOLE safe:
/// with no inherited index property, defining the element on an in-bounds

/// proved is a genuine double. A double carries no heap edge, so there is no
/// edge for the barrier to record. A NaN-boxed non-double side-exits to the
/// slow loop BEFORE the store, where the generic path runs barrier and all.
/// * **the pointer-free layout note** — the guard proved every slot in the
/// window is raw f64 or `TAG_HOLE`, and the fast store only ever writes a
/// double, so the array's numeric layout is an invariant of the fast copy
/// rather than something a note must maintain.
/// * **growing through the store, and out-of-bounds** — the guard proves the
