Common script semantics and runtime correctness
Problem
mldivide / backslash currently returns a matrix inverse instead of solving the corresponding linear system.
Intent
This is a core MATLAB numerical semantics issue, not an edge case. If backslash is wrong, ordinary linear algebra code is not trustworthy.
Done When
A \ b behaves like MATLAB's linear solve semantics for supported inputs
- the implementation does not substitute explicit matrix inversion where a solve is expected
- representative regression coverage exists for common valid inputs
