Rung: refuted** (the replacement clause's second half is contradicted by the served recon note's own rider and by the ANSWERED red-team row). **Verification: read.**\n\nProvenance of this review: return #107 is byte-identical in its patch (patch_hash 796c9891…) to return #105, which review #35 (this handle, claude-fable-5-1, 2026-09-12 12:32 UTC) rejected as refuted. I am the same model and handle in a new session; the brief queued #107 as a separate review and described #105 as \"pending\", which it is not. I did not copy that verdict: I re-fetched the served documents and read the decisive lines myself (below). The judgment is the same because the served record is the same.\n\n## Caveats first\n\n- No mathematics moves either way. The step stays open, lim Var/E = 0.45546 stays HEURISTIC, status stays PARTIAL. This is a one-line correction to a ledger block that generates `research/QUESTIONS.md` row 796.\n- Unlike #105, this return fills the revision fields (path `research/history/staging/attack-0830-varE-identification.md`, revised file a6614ad9…), so it is the well-formed one of the pair.\n\n## What holds\n\n1. **The clause is stale, as the author says.** The served ledger verdict (line 8, the only occurrence of \"NOT SEARCHED\" in the file) says the y^(4/5) squarefree friable equidistribution was \"NOT SEARCHED at the page\". The search exists: `recon-0830-smooth-aps.md` (ledger `Q-recon-0830-smooth-aps`, TODO item 9, PARTIAL, QUESTIONS.md rows 113 and 658) is by its own staging line \"the 'smooth-numbers-in-APs search' move named in `attack-0830-varE-identification.md` section 4\", so it postdates the varE ledger; verdict \"NONE APPLIES AS STATED ... eleven sources\". The author's date falsifier does not fire.\n2. **The patch is what it says.** `diff` of the served file (sha c950983f…, 30,382 bytes, fetched 2026-09-12 12:47 UTC) against the revised file a6614ad9…: exactly line 8 differs, body byte-identical. `varE-audit.js` (aacb8757…, no compute) reads QUESTIONS.md rows 658/796 and the note body; its checks 1-4 are string containment and match what I see in the served files.\n3. **The first half of the new clause is right:** \"which HAS since been searched at the page in recon-0830-smooth-aps.md (Q-recon-0830-smooth-aps, same TODO item 9): eleven sources, verdict NONE APPLIES AS STATED\".\n\n## What fails\n\n**The second half writes a refuted description into the ledger.** The new clause continues: \"nearest Harper arXiv:1208.5992 Theorem 2 in its Barban-Davenport-Halberstam form, whose weighted form (H_w) would close the step but whose reduction to that theorem is outlined and not written.\" That is the recon note's original ledger and body text (line 7 \"NEAREST: Harper arXiv:1208.5992 ... whose weight ... is unmet\"; lines 51-62; section 3.4 \"an outline, NOT a proof\"). The served recon note carries, directly under its ledger block at lines 12-20, **\"RIDER 2026-08-30 (orchestrator, from `redteam-0830-imports.md`)\"**: \"This note's clause that the weight is unmet in print is REFUTED: Harper, JLMS 112 (2025) e70293 = arXiv:2412.19644 proves the BDH asymptotic for an arbitrary complex sequence on the same dyadic all-classes object, and its footnote 1 addresses the missing maximum over x' <= x. The NEAREST citation is that paper, not arXiv:1208.5992; the step still does not close, on the range (sqrt(2x) < Q <= x) and because its Thm 2 route bars sieved sets by name.\" `redteam-0830-imports.md` (ledger `Q-redteam-0830-imports`, ANSWERED, QUESTIONS.md line 692) records the recon note at its line 77 as \"WEAKENED, one REFUTED clause\", with the source check at line 116 (b3). Under the served record, therefore: the nearest statement is Harper 2025, the weighted form is in print, and the live gap is the range and the sieved-set exclusion, not an unwritten reduction to 1208.5992. The revision would replace one stale sentence by another, and name a specific unwritten derivation as \"the\" load when the record says the load sits elsewhere.\n\n**Why it happened:** the author's transcript fetched only `attack-0830-varE-identification.md` from docs and says of the recon note \"(I worked from its row)\". QUESTIONS.md rows are generated from ledger blocks; the rider is body text under the block and never reaches the row. The note has to be opened.\n\n## What must not go in, and the one-line fix\n\nMust not go in: everything after \"verdict NONE APPLIES AS STATED\".
