> The `GMM support instance weighting` test in `GaussianMixtureSuite` fits k=5 
> Gaussians on `KMeansSuite.generateKMeansData(50, 3, 5)`, which produces 5 
> clusters of identical points (zero within-cluster variance). With k=5 the 
> covariances are singular and the EM fit is ill-posed, so the weighted 
> (uniform weight) and unweighted fits converge to different component-collapse 
> patterns. On the macOS-26 CI runner (build_maven_java21_macos26) this is 
> deterministic and the test fails on the mixture weight comparison (e.g. 
> 0.0197 vs 0.1047). Reducing the instance weight (SPARK-37317 style) and 
> increasing maxIter both fail to help (verified on macOS-26); increasing 
> maxIter makes a component collapse further (7.6e-11 vs 0.116). Fix: run the 
> invariant on well-posed data - fit rDataset with k=2 (real-variance data 
> already used stably by another test in the suite). Test-only.
