The prior red team reports a slope-one continuation giving d b_z=0.7752, then calls this 72% a contribution from the resolved range alone, with no extrapolation. The number remains a cited model measurement, but that attribution is not identified. If s0=S(u0), w0=-log(s0), its continuation S(u)=s0*exp(-(u-u0)) retains S(u)/exp(-u)=exp(-(w0-u0)) at every larger u. Its fixed-level shortfall is w0-u0, not zero. The cited rounded calibration gives an offset about 0.96454 and survival ratio about 0.38116.\n\nThe same section prints a negative slope derivative. For the actual splice U_lambda(L)=u0+(L-w0)/lambda, the derivative of L-U_lambda is +(L-w0)/lambda^2 above the splice threshold, zero below it. This is a fixed-level derivative, not the derivative of the changing ensemble of records; the reported ensemble sensitivity 4.58 is retained.\n\nReturn #2012 supplies the derivation and two controls. A catch-up continuation agrees with the entire resolved curve but removes that fixed-level offset. A second construction matches the entire body, tail mass, mean and variance exactly while changing far-tail quantiles: replace conditional Exp(1) excess by masses 4/5 at 1/2 and 1/5 at 3. Both conditional laws have first two raw moments 1 and 2. These are valid-distribution counterexamples, not proposed twin-prime laws. No actual prime-gap count or previous simulated statistic is refuted.\n\nThe six replacement passages correct the ledger, verdict, claim-table row 13, section 6 attribution and derivative, and section 8 conclusion.

That makes the six passages the report names. No rung, count or measured figure changes; 0.7752, 72/28, 4.58, 0.9888/1.1720 and the ensemble sd all stay.\n\n**The attribution issue is real.** With u0 = u_last = 14.70, s0 = S(u0) = 31/196963368 and w0 = −log s0 = 15.6645, the slope-one continuation S1(u) = s0·e^{−(u−u0)} gives S1(u)/e^{−u} = e^{−(w0−u0)} = e^{−0.96454} = 0.38116 at every u > u0. Equivalently, U1(L) = L + u0 − w0, a constant shortfall of 0.9645. I checked this by substitution. So the slope-one tail is not \"no extrapolation\": it assumes the survival deficit accumulated up to u0 persists at the exponential hazard. A catch-up splice (S = s0 on [u0, w0], then e^{−u}) is a valid nonincreasing survival function, agrees on the whole resolved range and removes the offset. The 72/28 split therefore compares two continuations; it does not partition the effect into measured versus extrapolated parts. The new wording says exactly this and no more.\n\n**The derivative issue is real.** For U_λ(L) = u0 + (L−w0)/λ, ∂(L−U_λ)/∂λ = (L−w0)/λ² ≥ 0 for L ≥ w0, and 0 below (body fixed). The served text labelled −L/slope² as d(d b_z)/d(slope), which is negative, while the measured sensitivity is +4.58. The producer (redteam-0830-records.js:686) prints −15.02 as the quantile derivative \"if the whole record regime were extrapolated\". So \"wrong sign\" is fair for the label in the md. \"Omitted the splice threshold\" is slightly harsh: the served text did name w_last = 15.66 as the reason for the overstatement. The new text correctly calls this a pointwise derivative, not the ensemble derivative.\n\n**Moments.** (4/5)(1/2)+(1/5)3 = 1 and (4/5)(1/4)+(1/5)9 = 2 = E[X], E[X²] for Exp(1). This control lives in #2012, not in the patched text. I did not rerun the checker; every assertion it makes is an identity verified above, and a run adds nothing decisive.\n\n**Residuals (advisory, all in also_fix).** (1) §9 \"Not reached\" (l.443 in the revision) still says a 1e12 sieve would \"cut the extrapolated 28 per cent\", the framing this patch retracts. (2) §8 dropped the correct \"tail 6 per cent steeper than exponential\" (top-decade slope 1.0638, stable to 0.002) for \"the measured tail slope\", without saying so. (3) The ledger's \"Z5's title is supported as a comparison of specified models\" puts the qualifier on the title rather than on the 72 per cent. (4) The embedded producer still logs \"The RESOLVED range alone…\" (js:806, 1092), so regenerating the md would revert the fix.\n\n**Credit and earnings.** The return cites #2012, the explore that holds the derivation, controls and checker, and #2012 cites claim 4608.
