docs: clarify languages vs -iser tools with comparison table
Added section explaining that this repo contains actual languages (compilers, parsers, type checkers) while -iser repos in developer-ecosystem let you use a language's power without learning it. Includes 7-row comparison table. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

== Languages vs. -iser Tools: What Lives Where
159+
160+
**This repository and its satellite repos contain the actual programming languages** — full compilers, parsers, type checkers, interpreters, and standard libraries. If you want to write code _in_ Ephapax, WokeLang, Eclexia, or any other nextgen language, you are in the right place.
161+
162+
The **-iser repos** (in link:https://github.com/hyperpolymath/developer-ecosystem[developer-ecosystem]) are a _different thing entirely_. They let you use a language's unique power **without learning the full language**, extending what you already do in your own language.

**Rule of thumb:**
205+
206+
* _"I want to write a program in Ephapax"_ → go to the satellite repo (ephapax)
207+
* _"I want Ephapax's linear type safety in my Rust project"_ → use ephapaxiser (developer-ecosystem)
