Challenge: same force, more nodes

Refine the loaded face, predict the distribution, and demonstrate an error below 0.1%.

Verifiable challenge — Same force, more nodes

Complete 05_challenge.mac with mesh_h=0.025 m. Do not copy case IDs from the previous case, and do not solve.

Before running, predict which columns should change and which should remain unchanged. Then explain why force_per_node is not a separate physical input.
