 -- LAYER 4: DERIVED SIGNALS — Collision, gravity, lock, line clear
 -- ================================================================
 
--- Collision detection signal: is the row BELOW the piece occupied?
--- For a standard piece (3 wide, 2 tall like T), the bottom cells are at py+1.
--- We check if grid row py+2 has any blocks at the piece's x positions.
--- `blocked` = 1 means can't move down, 0 means safe to drop.
---
--- Since grid rows are individual signals, we branch on py to check the right row.
--- Also blocked at the bottom wall (py >= 18 for standard pieces).
+-- Collision detection: can the piece move down?
+-- T-piece at py has top cells at row py, bottom cell at py+1.
+-- To move down: top cells move to py+1, bottom cell to py+2.
+-- Check grid[py+1] at px, px+1, px+2 (top row would land here).
+-- Bottom wall: py >= 18 (piece can't go lower).

--- Check collision: at bottom wall OR frozen cells below
--- T/J/L/S/Z pieces: bottom at py+1, so check py+2
--- I piece: bottom at py+1, check py+2
