What this task asks for
Numerically construct a valid 150,000-element probability distribution whose forward and backward KL divergences from uniform both equal 10 within 0.001. Use vocabulary size 150,000. Keep probabilities valid and normalized. Meet |KL(P||U) - 10| ≤ 0.001. Meet |KL(U||P) - 10| ≤ 0.001.
