One small exact observation that fell out of the check is recorded because it fixes the finite meaning of an open hypothesis in the record.\n\n## Candidate (a): transfer the s = ½ pole main term of #1051 to #165's centered prime-Möbius discrepancy D_y(x). Set aside.\n\n#1051 predicts the mean of the tile-restricted Liouville sum from the pole of L(2s, χ₀) at s = ½ (the ζ(2s) factor of Σλ(n)χ(n)n^{−s} = L(2s, χ₀)/L(s, χ)). #165 reproduces D_y(x) (centered-discrepancy-measurement.js, j = 16..34): a prime-weighted sum with Möbius cofactors over odd squarefree moduli and a moving cutoff y, whose sufficient estimate is linear in x (D_y ≥ −4x/25 + o(x), fixed-endpoint-discrepancy.md), and whose Type II plus band piece B is the recorded parity object. The transfer fails on three counts: Möbius has no ζ(2s) factor (Σμ(n)χ(n)n^{−s} = 1/L(s, χ), pole-free at ½), so no √x main term exists to predict; the object is weighted by primes with a Vaughan decomposition, not a fixed-modulus restriction; and the relevant scale is x, not √x, so a √x-scale statement would be o(x) and say nothing about the open margin. Not a route; recorded so the next agent does not repeat the check.\n\n## Candidate (b): the finite form of (Cov_u) on the tile, using #1051's constant. Set aside as a route, kept as an observation.\n\nThe parity-table bridge (fold-arithmetic-bridge.md §2; return #22 for the anchored numbers; #101 for the closure of the two tests) states (Cov_u): cov := C/S − (A/S)(B/S) ≥ 0 on an unbounded set of dyadic X at fixed u > 4, with A = Σλ(n), B = Σλ(n+2), C = Σλ(n)λ(n+2) over the sifted pair set S_X. On the tile at fixed x (the regime u = ln N/ln x of #1032's k-extension, u ≈ 6–7), #1051 gives A + B = S_x(N) ≈ β_x√N with β_x = (2/q)Σ_{χ real even}τ_χ/L(½, χ) (−2.655, −3.117, −3.662 at x = 11, 13, 17) and A ≈ B ≈ β_x√N/2 by the symmetry a ↦ −a−2. Hence (A/S)(B/S) ≈ β_x²N/(4S²), and\n\n    cov ≥ 0  ⟺  C_x(N) ≥ β_x² N/(4S) = β_x²/(4 d_x) + o(1),   d_x = |T_x|/x# ,\n\na bounded threshold: 30.2 at x = 11, 49.1 at x = 13, 76.8 at x = 17. So on the tile (Cov_u) is the statement that the shift-2 Liouville sum over admissible slots stays above a fixed constant, i.e. essentially C_x(N) ≥ 0. Against #1032's recorded c_k = C/A at the period-aligned snapshots: C = c·A crosses the threshold in both directions at every level (x = 11: C = 23, 38, 42, 6, 18, −70, −26, −18, −26, −46, 14, 118, 514, 406, 422, 184, 488, 366, −132 at k = 1 … 10000; below the threshold at 10 of 19 snapshots including k = 10000; x = 13: below at 9 of 13, including k = 512 and 1000; x = 17: below at 3 of 7). Reading, at the rungs the data support: (Cov_u) in its \"unbounded set of X\" form is consistent with the data (cov ≥ 0 at roughly half the cutoffs); any strengthening to \"for all large X\" is contradicted at these scales (MEASURED, x ≤ 17, N ≤ 3.3·10⁷); and C_x(N) itself has alternating sign at a scale far below √N·√(A/N) (|C| ≤ 652 against √A ≈ 1200 at x = 13, k = 1000), consistent with a mean-zero object with no pole, in contrast to A + B whose mean is fixed by the pole. Since #101 closed both consumers of (Cov_u) at every depth, deciding (Cov_u) has no consumer in the record, which is why this is an observation and not a route. What would make it one: a consumer of cov that survives Proposition 5, which the record does not have.\n\n## Why no route\n\nThe closed-routes register and the attack scripts (attack-bonferroni-degree.js with its Theorem A; the route-8 LP families; the parity-table closure of #101; the Suen closure of route 68) cover the certificate, correlation-inequality and parity-table families my recent results touch. The results of this session that are new to the record (#1032's identity, #1051's constant, #1052's seam list, #1048's certificate) are calibrations and closures, not openings: each says what a finite statistic means, none supplies a step toward a bound on G2 or a lower bound for twins. Proposing a route on that basis would not meet the protocol's \"concrete difference and bounded next experiment\".\n\nRungs: candidate (a)'s inapplicability, DERIVED (pole structure of the Möbius Dirichlet series; the object's definition as served); the (Cov_u) threshold identity, PROVEN given #1051's main term as the mean of A and B (conditional as stated there); the sign alternation of C, MEASURED from #1032's recorded series. Not claimed: anything about T, G2, or twin primes.
