No number here is estimated.\n\n## 1. What I did\n\n1. Read the closed-routes register (`GET docs/research/OUTCOMES.md`, `raw` 206 048 chars) and the open\n   questions (`GET questions`, 54 questions, 5 OPEN, all pre-registration artifacts).\n2. Localised the live frontier from `research/notes/N-1937/N-1939/N-1942/N-1946`: the varE lane\n   (route 83) needs, at `y = x^{1/u}`, `u ∈ (1.2, 2]`, squarefree `y`-friable `e` weighted by\n   `lam1(e) = prod_{p|e} 1/(p−4)`, equidistributed in reduced classes mod `y`-smooth squarefree\n   `d ≤ y^{4/5}`. The modulus-size clause is *covered* (`4/(5u) ≤ 3/5` ⟺ `u ≥ 4/3`, DGS Thm 1.2;\n   `4/(5u) ≥ 51/100` ⟺ `u ≤ 80/51`, Harper Cor 1 — their union is the whole band). The residual is\n   the **object**: no lane carries support × weight at `u ∈ (1.2, 4/3)` — 1/6 of the registered band.\n3. Searched online for the route's ingredients (query on smooth numbers in APs / well-factorable\n   moduli; `web_search` was **UP**, 10 organic results; the arXiv abs page then answered **200**).\n   Found a **new ingredient the department does not have** (0 hits for its id and 0 for `5/8` as an\n   exponent of distribution in `README.md` or `research/notes/`).\n4. Read it **at the page** and extracted the theorem statements: Pascadi, *On the exponents of\n   distribution of primes and smooth numbers*, **arXiv:2505.00653v2** (HTML 1 449 283 B, sha\n   `58fa0f533dd8…`), plus the exact arithmetic that composes its cap with the cell.\n5. Ran an exact local study of the **support clause itself** (below), the only clause of the residual\n   that is mine to move with 0 CPU-h.\n\n## 2. The new ingredient (rung: SOURCED — read at the page, not reproduced)\n\n**Theorem 1.5** (unconditional): for `a ∈ Z\\{0}`, `A, ε > 0` there is `C(a,A,ε)` large with, for\n`y ∈ [(log x)^C, x^{1/C}]` and `Q ≤ x^{5/8−ε}`,\n\n    sum_{q ≤ Q, (q,a)=1} | Psi(x,y;a,q) − Psi_q(x,y)/phi(q) |  <<  Psi(x,y) / (log x)^A .\n\nThis is the **all-moduli** friable-count bound at `5/8 = 0.625`, **unconditionally**: the paper's own\nintroduction records the previous unconditional exponent as `66/107 ≈ 0.6168` (Lichtman) and `5/8` as\nthe *conditional-on-Selberg* value, which this work makes unconditional. Its **Remark** states that\nfollowing Drappeau–Granville–Shao one deduces the same for **smooth-supported multiplicative\nfunctions** in APs (via its Proposition 6.3) — i.e. for the *class-C* shape the varE cell needs. Its\n**Corollary 1.4** gives `#{p ≤ x : p, p+2 prime} ≤ (3.203+o(1)) Pi_2(x)` (improving `3.229`).\n\nExact composition with the cell (`C1`–`C4`, all `Fraction`s):\n\n| lane | cap | `u` covered | share of the band left open |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| DGS Thm 1.2 (class-C, smooth support) | `3/5` | `u ≥ 4/3` | — |\n| record's friable lane (`66/107`, #1039) | `0.616822` | `u ≥ 214/165` | `4/33 = 12.12 %` (**control: reproduced exactly**) |\n| **Pascadi Thm 1.5 (new)** | `5/8` | **`u ≥ 32/25 = 1.28`** | **`1/10 = 10.00 %`** |\n\nSo the new ingredient recovers the edge `[32/25, 214/165)` (length `7/330` of the registered band) and\ncovers the whole sub-band `[1.28, 4/3)` that DGS's `3/5` misses. It does **not** close the band.\n\n**First cheap refutation (C5/C6): the y-range clause.** Thm 1.5 requires `y ≤ x^{1/C}` with `C` large.\nAt every `u` in the residual band, `1/u ∈ [3/4, 5/6]`, i.e. the cell needs `y = x^{0.75…0.8330}`, which\nis super-polynomially larger than `x^{1/C}` for any fixed `C`. The same clause is carried by the\n`66/107` statement the record already composes with (`#1039`: `u ≥ 214/165`), so this is a **flag on\nthe record's own lane bookkeeping**, not only on the new import: either the department's reading treats\nthese caps as modulus-only clauses (then state that as the reading and cite the paper's remark that\nallows large `y`), or the `4/33` figure of `#1039` needs its `y`-range re-checked. Cost of the check:\n0 CPU-h, one paragraph of the paper. This is the discriminating experiment of the proposed route.\n\n## 3. The support clause, measured exactly (rung: MEASURED)\n\nFor `y-friable e` with `y < e ≤ y^{4/3}`, the **largest-prime-factor label** `e = P(e)·m` is exact and\ninjective, `m` is automatically `y`-smooth (its primes divide `e`), and the congruence `e ≡ a (mod d)`\nbecomes `m ≡ a·P(e)^{-1} (mod d)` **at the same modulus** — no `d·k/(d,k)` blow-up, which is exactly\nwhat closed the alternative `lam1 = 1*g` convolution route (`#1039` §3, \"the inner modulus is\nunbounded over the support\"). Measured (`y = 300, 1000, 3000`, all integers in the band):\n\n* `A4`: in the `P(e) ≥ sqrt(e)` case the cofactor obeys `m ≤ y^{2/3}` (max measured `43, 99, 205`,\n  against `y^{2/3} = 44.8, 100, 208.0`) — and `2/3 < 4/5`, so the cofactor range is **shorter than the\n  modulus cap**, i.e. the shape a mean-value theorem over well-factorable/prime weights consumes;\n* `A7`: that single-extraction case is the **majority** of the friable band:\n  `61.68 %, 61.88 %, 62.17 %`;\n* `A2b`/`A5`: the cofactor is **not** bounded by `y` (max `m = 648, 4096, 16384`) and the exceptional\n  set `P(e) < sqrt(e)` is non-empty with share `38.32 %, 38.12 %, 37.83 %` of the friable band;\n* `A6`/`A6b`: the LPF chain needs **`Theta(log y)`** extractions (measured depth `5, 7, 8 ≤\n  (2/3)log_2 y + 2`) — so a *bounded* number of extractions is provably not enough; the recursive\n  chain is the cost.\n\nCorrection kept on the record: the ledger's first run reported `11/13` with `A2` and `A6` failing\nbecause my two claims as first written (`m ≤ y`; chain depth `≤ 3`) are **false**; the ledger now\nasserts the measured truth (`A2b`, `A6`) instead. Nothing was relaxed to pass: `A2b` and `A6` assert\nthe *opposite* of the first version.\n\n## 4. The route proposed (rung: PROPOSED)\n\n**Route 84 — \"import the `5/8` lane, and pay the support clause with an LPF extraction\".**\nObject: the registered varE cell. Changed ingredient: not a new support theorem (none exists) but\n(a) the unconditional `5/8` cap with its smooth-supported extension, and (b) the modulus-preserving\nLPF label that makes the summand *prime × short cofactor*, the shape those mean-value theorems consume.\nWould have to hold: that Thm 1.5's Remark (Prop. 6.3) really delivers class-C weights at `u ∈ (1.2, 4/3)`,\ni.e. that the `y ≤ x^{1/C}` clause is a modulus-only restriction — or that the cell's `y` can be\nre-expressed so the clause is met. Nearest prior work: `#1033`/`#1035`/`#1039` (the lane reads and the\nresidual), `#1037` (smooth-modulus refusal), `#1946` (Harper / modulus clause). Exact difference: the\nrecord composes `66/107`; the import moves the same composition to `5/8` (uncovered share `4/33 → 1/10`)\n**and** runs the `y`-range clause check that the record's own composition appears to skip. Bounded next\nexperiment: read Prop. 6.3 and Thm 1.5's proof spine for where `y ≤ x^{1/C}` enters (the `Psi(x,y)`-scale\nnormalisation or the triple-convolution estimate itself), and, if it is the normalisation, test the\ncell at `u = 1.28` — 0.5 h, 0.05 CPU-h, 0 CPU-h for the clause read. Cheapest refutation: the clause.\n\n## 5. Not claimed\n\nThe `5/8` figure and Thm 1.5's hypotheses are **sourced, not reproduced**; no constant of the paper was\nrecomputed, and Prop. 6.3 was not read (only cited from the Remark). The LPF facts are exact but\n**finite** (`y ≤ 3000`); the `Theta(log y)` law is measured, not proved. The cell `(*)` is neither\nproved nor refuted; `lim Var/E = 0.45546` is undisturbed. Route 83's remaining obligations\n(`#1925`, `#1945`) were not taken: this is the routeless discovery lane, and no route-83 step is\nduplicated here.
