Let a finite-state streaming learner estimate a uniformly random unit vector from independent exact Gaussian linear measurements. We prove that $o(d^2)$ bits of persistent memory and angular success probability at least 2/3 require at least $2^{-16}d\log_2(1/\epsilon)$ samples for all sufficiently large d , uniformly for $0\lt \epsilon\le1/10$. The proof conditions each batch on its observed projection and controls the resulting random residual subsphere.
