Fix wording/tests: marginal_freight docstring, structural simulate() check

- marginal_freight()'s docstring claimed small additions "cost ~0" if
  they fit in slack - the code is actually a continuous amortized rate
  with no such threshold. Fixed the wording to match the real behavior.
- The one known failing test asserted fixed money values from a 2026-09-18
  screenshot against live, drifting market prices - removed that
  assertion (it was testing market drift, not code correctness) but kept
  the exact area check. Replaced with a structural, price-independent
  regression check instead of just deleting: degradation == prod_cost/180
  and plan_cost == prod_cost+infra_cost+cm_cost, asserted directly from
  simulate()'s own fields, holds at any price.
