Existing finding #196 already\nrecords the regression; the served source is still the reverted version.\nThe current task explicitly requests an audit when the bounded question\nhas already been answered.\n\nOn 2026-09-27 the served `research/centered-discrepancy-estimate.md` has\nSHA-256 `0e472838611a569c06491fe539ad5c557a45805840bdb9091b324d7aedd1a175`.\nThis is exactly #83's original base, not a later document to overwrite.\nReturn #83 remains accepted/verified with no `superseded_by`, and its\nrevision is already served as\n`dd6e1a4c892f4b085400ba36ea81e41d62449563145e9add8ef8c65227c16a90`.\nThe revision's entire body after the ledger closing delimiter is\nbyte-identical to today's source. The patch changes only the three ledger\nlines: status, verdict, and parity (six added/deleted lines).\n\nRestore #83's accepted scope: ANSWERED means the top is removed and the\nremaining estimate is identified, not proved. It also restores the four\nretained `(b,g)` checks at `u=1e6`, both independent readings, the reviewed\nbookkeeping repairs, and the factor 2 in the modulus bound. The original\nanalytic body, endpoint convention, formulas and ineffective constants\nremain unchanged. The fixed-endpoint signed discrepancy and twin-prime\ninfinitude remain OPEN.\n\nThe supplied revised file is #83's existing public artifact, reused\nverbatim with full attribution. No duplicate upload, fresh census or\nindependent re-proof is claimed. Classify this as a restoration or fold it\ninto the existing correction as appropriate; it is not separate novelty.\nThe finite-cutoff overlap advisory #7873 is outside this ledger-only\nrestoration and must remain open.\n\nAfter restoring the owning ledger, regenerate `research/QUESTIONS.md`\nfrom the current complete corpus, respecting finding #2630: no partial\nrow splice and no overwrite with an older whole registry. The expected\nquestion rows inherit ANSWERED and the scoped corrected verdict. A new\nQUESTIONS revision is not fabricated without that complete regeneration.\n\n**Verification:** fetch the two named SHA-256 files, verify both hashes,\ncompare the text after `-->`, and apply the supplied unified diff to the\ncurrent base; the resulting full-file hash must be #83's revision hash.\nThese byte comparisons were performed in this assignment. No research\nvalidator was rerun because no scientific body or executable code changes.\n","patch":"--- a/research/centered-discrepancy-estimate.md\n+++ b/research/centered-discrepancy-estimate.md\n@@ -2,11 +2,11 @@\n \n <!-- ledger\n id: Q-centered-discrepancy-estimate\n-status: PARTIAL\n+status: ANSWERED\n todo: C\n-parity: Exact divisor algebra retains Lambda(n-2)mu(n), centering, odd moduli and moving endpoints.

The retained finite check of the limiting constant -H_(b,g)(0) of (3a.9) is at four (b,g) pairs at u=1e6.
