I read the printed theorem statements, not the proofs. The arXiv search used abstract keywords only, and I did not reread Murty–Vatwani myself. Nothing here bounds D_y, moves any exponent, or proves anything about twin primes.\n\n## Decision\nNo further pursuit step is justified. Outcome **known**.\n\n1. **Part (1) of the contribution is already on record.** Route 119 says that (16) implies the twin prime conjecture (\"target-completeness\"). The served document states this itself. See `research/moving-cutoff-parity.md` §4.1 (SHA-256 `afb56f57…2824a47`, the same bytes that #1374 cites): \"One sufficient **OPEN** estimate is therefore (16) … It would give S(x)>=x/200+o(x) … Removing the proper-prime-power contribution then gives infinitely many twins.\" §1 of the same document says \"the underlying conditional mechanism is published mathematics\" (Murty–Vatwani, JNT 180 (2017) 643–659). Proposition U in #1374 re-derives this combination of (12), (14) and (15). It is not a new logical fact. Rung: observed, from a direct quote.\n2. **Parts (2) and (3) do not motivate an experiment.** Part (2) says 4/825 is an artefact of choosing the split parameter; part (3) lists the trivial, log-power and square-root strengths. Both are exponent bookkeeping, and #1374's ledger already covers them (E3–E6). They do not change what input is missing.\n3. **I executed the route's own next step, a statement-level read, and it hit the failure branch.** No inspected source prints a fixed-shift h=2 cancellation for μ(p+2) with AP moduli to x^{13/25}, whether in fixed-class or cutoff-max form (details in `evidence_md`). Under the route's own failure clause, no further carrier search should be assigned. The reopen condition is still a parity-breaking input. By Proposition U, such an input would itself be a proof of twin primes.\n\n## Per-claim rungs\n- Lichtman arXiv:2009.08969v2, Thms 1.1 and 1.8: averaged over h ≤ H; no residue-class moduli. Observed, statement level.\n- Tao–Teräväinen arXiv:1809.02518v2, Thm 1.7 and Cors 1.13–1.14: 1-bounded multiplicative g_j only; no Λ weight; no moduli; almost all scales. Observed, statement level.\n- Tao–Teräväinen arXiv:2109.06291v2 (not in #1374's list): fixed-shift Λ·λ correlations, but only under the hypothesis that Siegel zeros exist. That hypothesis already gives twin primes (Heath-Brown). No moduli. Observed from the abstract only.\n- No 2024–2026 successor was found. This is a search observation, not evidence of absence.\n\n44 of @Benjaminsen's returns are waiting for a verdict.\n\n## Sources\n- J. D.

This is an average over shifts. There are no residue classes mod q and no cutoff max. Thm 1.8 (bounded multiplicative f, H = X^theta) has the same averaged-h shape. Moduli q <= Q enter only through the pretentious distance M(f; X, Q) (characters q <= (log X)^A), not as a sum over e <= x^{13/25}.\n(b) Tao-Teravainen arXiv:1809.02518v2 Thm 1.7 and Cor 1.13/1.14: fixed shifts h_i, but the g_j are 1-bounded MULTIPLICATIVE functions. Lambda(n-2) is neither, so Lambda(n-2)mu(n) is out of scope. The conclusion holds at almost all scales (log density), and the only extra parameter is a dilation d averaged in E^{loglog}_{d<=X}; it is not a modulus sum.\n(c) Tao-Teravainen arXiv:2109.06291v2: an asymptotic for sum Lambda(n+h)lambda(n+h'), i.e. a fixed-shift Lambda-lambda correlation, but ONLY assuming Siegel zeros exist. Under the same hypothesis twin primes already follow (Heath-Brown), so this is conditional on an input at least as strong as the target and has no AP moduli.\n(d) The route's contribution (1), \"(16) implies twin primes\", is stated in the served research/moving-cutoff-parity.md sec 4.1 (sha afb56f57...), and sec 1 credits the conditional mechanism to Murty-Vatwani (2017). Parts (2) and (3) are bookkeeping already ledgered in #1374 (E3-E6).\nConclusion: the success branch (a printed fixed-shift + moduli display) did not occur, and the route's own failure clause applies. Outcome known: the contribution is covered by the served document and published mechanism, so no next_step. The reopen condition is still a parity-breaking fixed-shift input, which by sec 4.1 would itself prove the target.","prior_art_md":"Search 2026-09-22. arXiv export API, abstracts, sorted by date: abs:\"shifted primes\" (25 newest, 2021-2026); abs:\"shifted primes\" AND (Mobius OR Liouville); abs:Chowla AND abs:primes; abs:\"parity problem\" AND abs:\"twin primes\"; abs:Chowla AND abs:\"von Mangoldt\".
