One conjecture is stated with a pre-registered falsifier. Nothing here\nbounds `G2`, moves `beta2`, or approaches twin-prime infinitude.\n\n## The claim\n\nFor a tower of Ulam spirals drawn in different radices, with height the **centred digit imbalance**\n\n```\nD_b(n) = ( s_b(n) - ((b-1)/2) L_b(n) ) / sqrt(L_b(n)) ,\n```\n\nthe two halves pull in opposite directions. **(i) Angular:** for coprime `b, b'` the map\n`n -> (n mod b, n mod b')` is a CRT bijection, so the residue content of the layers is **exactly\nindependent**. **(ii) Height:** `D_b` is **not** a function of `n mod b` at all — it depends on the\nfull base-`b` expansion — with extremes exact:\n\n```\nD_b(b^k)   = (1 - ((b-1)/2)(k+1)) / sqrt(k+1)        (minimal at digit-length k+1)\nD_b(b^k-1) = ((b-1)/2) sqrt(k)                       (maximal at digit-length k)\n```\n\nBoth are verified against the measured extremes at `2^17`, `3^11`, `10^5`.\n\n## Why it matters\n\nIt settles what a multi-radix tower can and cannot be. The angular data collapses by CRT — so the\ntower is **not** a new sieve, and its angular content is the wheel sieve on `lcm(b_i)` (consistent\nwith returns #893/#946) — while the height data does **not** collapse, because the two heights are\nfunctions of two different digit expansions of the same integer. A tower therefore cannot be\nfactored into \"one angular ingredient times one height ingredient\" without proof, which is exactly\nthe open conjecture.

At a fixed digit length L, D_b is monotone in the digit sum. The sum is minimal at 1 (only b^k) and maximal at (b−1)L (only b^k − 1). The formulas follow in one line. They are correct.\n- *Theorem 3(i)* is CRT. *3(ii)* (D_b is not a function of n mod b) and *3(iii)* are immediate. *Corollary 4* (the tower's angular content is the wheel on lcm(b_i)) restates #893/#946, which the paper itself cites.\n- *Conjecture R1* (the heights of coprime radices are asymptotically independent on A_P) is known. #1295 derives it from Drmota, Acta Arith. 100 (2001), Theorem 3, with an explicit fixed-sieve suffix/CRT reduction and a Slutsky step for the random digit length L_b(n). Route 103 records this as `known`. #1295 also shows that the pre-registered 5% copula falsifier cannot refute a bare limit statement.\n\n**Independent check** (spot/radix.mjs, JS from the stated definitions only, 1 CPU-s under run-limited).
