Because $Q_{17}$ is computed at Step 16 *after* $Q_{18}, Q_{20}, Q_{21}$ are fixed at Step 22, $G(Q_{18}, Q_{17}, Q_{16}) = (Q_{18} \\mathbin{\\&} Q_{16}) \\mathbin{|} (Q_{17} \\mathbin{\\&} \\sim Q_{16})$ normally depends on $Q_{17}$ on every bit where $Q_{16} = 0$, creating a circular dependency across Steps $18 \\to 19 \\to 0 \\to 4 \\to 1 \\to 16 \\to 18$.\n   - **$Q_{16} = \\text{0xffffffff}$ Gate Decoupling Law**: By selecting $(Q_{12}, Q_{13})$ from the **18 exact roots `Q16_ALL1_ROOTS[18][2]`** for which Steps $13..15$ (`m13=0x80, m14=416, m15=0`) yield $Q_{16} = \\text{0xffffffff}$ ($\\sim Q_{16} = 0$), Step 18's Round-2 selector collapses identically to:\n     $$G(Q_{18}, Q_{17}, \\text{0xffffffff}) \\equiv Q_{18} \\qquad \\forall\\, Q_{17} \\in [0, 2^{32}-1],$$\n     making $m_{11} = (-Q_{18} - Q_{15} - K_{18}) \\bmod 2^{32}$ **100% independent of $Q_{17}$**! Setting $Q_{18}^* = (K_{11} - K_{18} - Q_{15} - \\operatorname{RR}(Q_{12} + 1, 22)) \\bmod 2^{32}$, $G_{\\text{req}} = (\\operatorname{RR}(-Q_{22}, 14) - K_{22} - Q_{18}^*) \\bmod 2^{32}$, and $M_{\\text{match}} = \\sim(Q_{22} \\oplus G_{\\text{req}})$, any 64-bit random seed $(u, v)$ synthesizes a valid $(Q_{20}, Q_{21})$ pair in **4 bitwise operations** (`Q20 = u & M_match; Q21 = (G_req & ~Q20) | (v & Q20)`) that simultaneously guarantees **$Q_{26}(x) \\equiv Q_{25}(x)$ (`CS25`) AND $Q_8 \\equiv 0$** across all $x \\in [0, 2^{32}-1]$. Across the 18 roots, $\\sum_{r=0}^{17} 3^{\\operatorname{popcount}(M_{\\text{match}}(r))} = \\mathbf{11,811,807,666}$ ($\\approx 1.181 \\times 10^{10} \\approx 2^{33.46}$) distinct $Q_8 = 0$ collapsed bases ($5.073 \\times 10^{19}$ distinct 52-byte candidates) exist (`256/256` random bases and `65,536/65,536` random candidates verified with `0` mismatches against full 64-step RFC 1321 MD5).\n   - **Carry-Free Bit-Partition Identity on `sm_89` and `AVX-512`**: When $Q_8 = 0$, $F(x, Q_8, Q_7) = \\sim x \\mathbin{\\&} Q_7$. On `NVIDIA Ada sm_89`, evaluating `~x & cB.q7` directly in `q9_v20_cs25_q8z` forced `ptxas` to keep both `x` and `~x` live across the 4-candidate setup block, spiking register allocation from `47` to `56` registers and dropping occupancy from `83.33%` (`40` warps/SM) to `66.67%` (`32` warps/SM, `-7.4%` throughput). Applying the **Carry-Free Bit-Partition Identity** (`Theorem 1 Part B`):\n     $$(\\sim x \\mathbin{\\&} Q_7) + (x \\mathbin{\\&} Q_7) = Q_7 \\implies -(\\sim x \\mathbin{\\&} Q_7) \\equiv -Q_7 + (x \\mathbin{\\&} Q_7) \\pmod{2^{32}},$$\n     rewrites $r_9 = \\operatorname{RR}(-x, 12) + (x \\mathbin{\\&} Q_7) \\pmod{2^{32}}$ and folds $-Q_7$ once per base on the host into `k24 = cB.u24` and `kc[4] = cB.m[9] + K44 - cB.c9 - cB.q7` (`F->u24` and `F->k44_esf` on CPU). This eliminates `~x`, restoring `q9_v20_cs25_q8z` (`1,466` PTX insns, `-20` vs `q9_v17_cs25`) and `q9_v20_cs25_q8z_g24` (`1,451` PTX insns, `-35` vs `q9_v17_cs25`) to **`48` registers and `83.33%` occupancy (`40` warps/SM)**, and cutting Zen 4 AVX-512 hot-loop instructions by **`-16` (`1,626 -> 1,610`, `vpsubd: 28 -> 20`, `vpternlogd: 128 -> 124`, `+0.76%` 5-seed mean throughput to `5,355.77 ± 18.63 M/s`)**.\n   - **Coupled $Q_7 = Q_8$ Infeasibility (`11` Fixed Bit Collisions)**: Requiring $Q_7 = Q_8$ on top of `CS25` requires $G(Q_{21}, Q_{20}, Q_{18}) = G_{\\text{req},21}$ at Step 21 while Step 22 already fixes $(Q_{20}, Q_{21})$ on $\\sim M_{\\text{match}}$.
