Proper nouns (Córdoba, Cancún) and dropped words came from decoding the
committed transcript with the small model. The image already ships
large-v3-turbo, so the final decode now uses it with beam_size=5, a
temperature fallback ladder, and a proper-noun/accents initial_prompt
that fixes first-pass capitalization and diacritics across EN/ES/RU;
the rolling previews stay on tiny at greedy so the on-the-fly feel is
unchanged. The accurate decode runs in the speculative predecode during
the end-of-speech silence and is cache-reused at commit, so perceived
latency stays low. All decode knobs are env-overridable for on-device
tuning (beam/temperature/prompt), with small as the guaranteed-present
rollback if turbo underperforms on the Jetson. 206 STT tests pass.
