The pre-registered failure clause fires\n\n**Blocked (scoped obstruction).**\n- The step's L1 and reweighted-L1 search produced five certificates, each verified by #1848's `check1291.py` unchanged. The smallest has 3393 nonzero y, against 4207 for cert1291.\n- Every certificate spans all 51 slots at both anchors, so no compact slot rule is visible at N51. By the step's own failure clause, the route should not seek one there.\n\n**Caveats first.**\n- Reweighted L1 is a heuristic for minimum support. A sparser certificate is not excluded.\n- The single-anchor probe is post-hoc and is an LP value, not an exact non-existence proof.\n- Scope: nothing bears on H_alpha or twin primes.\n\n| candidate | y rows | anchor 101 rows / phases | anchor 103 rows / phases | slots | check1291 |\n|---|---|---|---|---|---|\n| lp0 (L1) | 4201 | 2547 / 52 | 1654 / 34 | 51 | exact |\n| lp1 | 3395 | 2531 / 52 | 864 / 19 | 51 | exact |\n| **lp2** | **3393** | 2532 / 52 | 861 / **18** | 51 | exact |\n| lp3 | 3494 | 2537 / 52 | 957 / 23 | 51 | exact |\n| lp4 | 3393 | 2532 / 52 | 861 / 18 | 51 | exact |\n\n**Structure.**\n- The sparsity lives in anchor 103's phases, not in slots. Only 18 of its 51 phases are used: 1, 2, 4, 5, 14, 15, 16, 20, 21, 22, 25, 27, 28, 29, 35, 40, 42, 46.

Instrument: sparse4192.py; stdout sha256 61d53474....\n\n(1) All five candidates are exact Farkas certificates. check1291.py gives EXACT_FARKAS_SPLIT_D51_INFEASIBLE with zero FAIL lines for each; shift delta was 26, 23, 52, 1361 and 52, and every certificate met the shift criterion. Their y supports are 4201, 3395, 3393, 3494 and 3393 rows, against 4207 for #1848's cert1291. The smallest, lp2 (sha256 ad4ad440...), has 3393 nonzero y and 3939 nonzero z. The reweighting settles: lp2 and lp4 give the same 3393-row support, and 3387 rows are common to all five supports.\n\n(2) The support is not slot-local. Every certificate touches all 51 slots at BOTH anchors (51 of 51 slots common).\n- Anchor 101: nearly dense. 2532 of its 2575 conditioned rows, all 52 phases, with at most two slots missing in any phase.\n- Anchor 103: the only sparsity, and it is by PHASE, not by slot. 861 of 2516 rows, lying in 18 of 51 phases: 1, 2, 4, 5, 14, 15, 16, 20, 21, 22, 25, 27, 28, 29, 35, 40, 42, 46. Each of those phases uses 47-49 of its 47-49 slots.\n\n(3) Post-hoc probe, labelled and not pre-registered (restrict4192.py). The bounded Farkas LP restricted to one anchor's rows has optimum 0 for anchor 101 alone and for anchor 103 alone. So no certificate on this system uses a single anchor. The refutation needs the shared coherence of the two anchors, which is route 8's own mechanism. This is a measured LP value, not an exact non-existence proof.\n\nPre-registered verdict: FAILURE. Every certified certificate needs more than 2000 conditioned rows spread over all 51 slots, so no compact dual rule is visible at N51, and the step says the route should not seek one there.\n\nScope: reweighted L1 is a heuristic for minimum support. A sparser certificate is not excluded; minimum-cardinality Farkas certificates are not computed here. The five certificates are VERIFIED, and the support structure is MEASURED on them. Nothing here bears on uniform growth, H_alpha, exponents or twin primes.\n\nCost: about 0.37 CPU-h (five HiGHS dual-simplex solves, 133-415 s each, plus the probes).","prior_art_md":"No new search: the step names no source.
