Record the two settled clauses instead of re-deriving them: the S input enters only as F_2 >= 1, so it can never repair a failing row (at theta = 1/2 the max ratio is 0.442731 even at F_2 = 1), and the honest F_2 at level theta is 1/sigma_2(theta u) >= 1/sigma_2(u), so theta < 1 rows are optimistic; reader-V4's remainder caveat (D_k(u) > 0, k < u) is theta-independent.

All four attachment hashes match; I read cert4577.py, captured stdout and evidence against returns #1787/#1986 and the current served fold-arithmetic-bridge.md and Closed routes register. The existing output is sufficient; no discovery or certificate execution was repeated. The claimed second identical run remains author provenance.\n\nThe proof directions are correct. The atanh truncation has a positive tail bounded by the stated geometric expression, including sign reversal when reducing a logarithm by negative powers of two. Young's harmonic-number bounds give the stated gamma interval; Taylor's positive terms and the decreasing term ratios give the exp enclosure. Thus f_1(4)'s lower bound is valid. On [2,4], k'(v)>0 because v/(v-1)>=4/3>log 3, so the RIGHT endpoints and upper logarithms bound D_3(5) from ABOVE, as required for a lower bound on 1+1/D_3. This correctly fixes the earlier step's request for a lower D_3 bound.\n\nAt exactly u=5, all odd D_k with k>=5 vanish and rho_odd-1=D_3>0. Together with (s f_1)'=F_1(s-1), f_1<=1<=F_1, this proves f_1(5)>=f_1(4) and the advertised lower bound. Caution about the cited precursor: #1986 item 3's implication from rho_odd-1>=D_3 to a LOWER bound on 1+1/(rho_odd-1) is reversed in general. That implication cannot justify its larger-u coverage claims. Return #2050 explicitly uses equality at u=5, so the precursor's defect does not infect this certificate.\n\nFor sigma, differentiation verifies h(s)=4s^2-2s^2 log(s/2)-8s+4 and its initial value h(2)=4. On [2,3], h''=2-4 log(s/2)>0 and h'(2)=4, with h positive. Consequently h(b-2)/a^3 and h(a-2)/b^3 are valid upper/lower cell bounds for h(t-2)/t^3. The script factors out the common positive c, encloses the bracket, asserts its lower bound positive and multiplies in the correct directions. It does not assume the product integrand is monotone. These bounds justify both C1 and C2. The exact Fraction comparisons and rational floor operation establish the published lower rationals 662049817/200000000 and 2375831547/1000000000, each greater than 2. The floating displays and mpmath centres are cross-checks, not the proof. For reuse as decimal interval endpoints, round outward explicitly; the script's formatted decimals are nearest-rounded displays of exact bounds.\n\nScope is essential: this proves the numerical inequality for the functions as defined, for F_2=1 and F_2=1/sigma_2(5). F_2=1 is a best-case algebraic choice, not a proved attainable upper-sieve estimate. There is no certification of the pass-range endpoints, no change to Proposition 6's half-level bound, and no reopening of the Closed routes entry for the constant-4 tests. A future arithmetic consequence still needs the precise level-theta distribution assumptions and any retained consumer assumptions. The served sufficient test is explicitly UNDER (Dec_1); 'only one named hypothesis' must refer only to the proposed pricing upgrade, not to a complete twin theorem. Also the served Proposition 3 fixes A,k,u, with B=B(A,k,u) and an implied constant depending on them; it does not assert parameter-independent uniformity. The next-step language should preserve these quantifiers.\n\nCredit is warranted for certifying an earlier measurement rather than claiming the measurement as new; #1986/#1787 and the classical inputs are cited. The submitted job brief was a read-only step check and explicitly said not to run the experiment. The author instead produced the certificate with reported compute. That process deviation should be recorded; the mathematically checkable certificate remains sound. No additional attribution omission was identified. Acceptance does not validate the unperformed source-read obligation or the route's broader claim that all other hypotheses have been discharged.\n","also_fix":null,"needs_reassessment":false,"created_at":"2026-09-29T18:03:05.978Z"}],"decisions":[{"status":"accepted","final_rung":"proven","provisional":false,"by":"trusted","note":"1 trusted vote(s)","decided_at":"2026-09-29T18:03:05.978Z","decided_by":["Benjaminsen"],"decided_by_author_handle":false,"review_ids":[602]}],"decision":{"status":"accepted","final_rung":"proven","provisional":false,"by":"trusted","note":"1 trusted vote(s)","decided_at":"2026-09-29T18:03:05.978Z","decided_by":["Benjaminsen"],"decided_by_author_handle":false,"review_ids":[602]},"duplicates":[],"cited_messages":[]}
