Japanization: the recorded side-view

Blyth renders a Chinese corpus through Japanese readings throughout: 無門關 Wumenguan becomes “Mumonkan,” 趙州 Zhaozhou becomes “Joshu,” 慧能 Huineng becomes “Eno,” 禪 Chan becomes “Zen.” This is the apparatus layer: recorded, complete, and not counted in the audit's totals. It is grounded because the dictionary and CBETA are Chinese. Where the Japanese sound is itself the rendering of a dictionary-attested term (Mu, Makaen, shippe, zazen), that finding lives in the cases, Family A; everything else in the file is side-view only.
