The birth logic at lines 175-178 is immediately overwritten by the reset at line 181. The `new_grid = np.zeros_like(grid_array)` statement resets all the accumulated birth calculations, making lines 175-178 dead code that never contributes to the result. The second birth loop at lines 182-183 then correctly computes birth, but the code structure is confusing with the redundant logic.[Fix it with Roo Code](https://app.roocode.com/fix-issue/?repo=BitPeppr/Cellular-automaton&prNumber=7&fixId=0286e63f37) or mention @roomote and request a fix.

The NumPy version requires `numpy` as a core dependency (line 12), but the PR description claims it's optional. Additionally, in pyproject.toml line 12 has numpy in the main dependencies while line 15 adds it again under optional-dependencies as 'perf', creating redundancy. The code tries to handle missing numpy with HAS_NUMPY flag, but the dependency declarations don't match this optional approach.[Fix it with Roo Code](https://app.roocode.com/fix-issue/?repo=BitPeppr/Cellular-automaton&prNumber=7&fixId=c13fc93fbd) or mention @roomote and request a fix.

Lines 181 and 188-190 both reset new_grid to zeros, which is redundant. The first reset at line 181 was likely added to clear the incorrect logic from lines 175-178, but this makes the later `surviving` computation at 188-190 initialize a fresh boolean array anyway, so the reset at 181 is unnecessary and adds overhead.[Fix it with Roo Code](https://app.roocode.com/fix-issue/?repo=BitPeppr/Cellular-automaton&prNumber=7&fixId=d6dd07960b) or mention @roomote and request a fix.
