Research direction

The report only provides setup.py and pip build output for Python 3.9, torch 1.8.1+cu101, and CUDA 10.1. Start by reproducing the installation failure and inspecting the Apex build entry point with those versions. Done requires identifying the compatibility cause and documenting or testing a confirmed installation path.
