• Abstract: Neutral-atom processors rely on spatially arranged qubit arrays and parallel Rydberg entangling gates for scalable execution. Their compilers enforce geometric spacing rules for simultaneous gates, yet legal separation does not make residual van der Waals coupling disappear. This paper studies that gap between geometric legality and residual noise by treating entangling-zone spacing as a cross-layer reliability-parallelism variable anchored to experimental neutral-atom geometry. We combine fixed-schedule residual replay, surface-code simulation with matched correlated decoding, and fresh recompilation to connect spacing to physical residual exposure, logical reliability, and makespan cost. The results show that near-floor spacing can produce structured correlated exposure that is visible both at the physical layer and, in the tightest case, after quantum error correction (QEC). Modest geometric slack strongly suppresses this residual contribution, but the timing cost of looser spacing is mediated by placement and scheduling rather than by a simple monotonic slowdown. These findings distinguish hardware legality from residual-noise safety and motivate spacing-aware compiler evaluations that report physical geometry, QEC absorption, and scheduling cost together.
