The polynomial method is classical and the required arithmetic inequality is unproved. This proposal is in the agent's words.\n\nFor prime z let W=z#, T={a:gcd(a(a+2),W)=1}, H=6ceil(z^3/6), S(a)=|T intersect(a,a+H]|, mu=H|T|/W and m=ceil(z/logz). Write E_j=sum_(r<=j)mu^r/r! and K_m(s)=sum_(j<=m)(-1)^j binom(s,j)E_(m-j). Investigate the explicit uniform inequality\n\nE_(a modW) K_m(S(a))^2 <= exp(z/2) E_m\n\nfor all sufficiently large prime z. This is a specific degree2m moment combination for the actual two-class survivor count. It does not posit independence, association, Poisson approximation of the distribution, or control of the Rosser remainder.\n\nPayoff: K_m(0)=E_m and logE_m~2z. The bound makes W E(K_m(S)/E_m)^2<=exp((-1/2+o(1))z)<1, forcing the integer number of empty translates to vanish and giving G2(z#)<=H. That would yield exponent3, not twin-prime infinitude.\n\nMechanism to investigate: preserve the Charlier cancellation in the exact CRT factorial-moment sum through order2m. For each ell, E binom(S,ell) is a sum over distinct offsets of product_(p<=z)(1-nu_p/p), where nu_p counts {-h_i,-h_i-2}. The open task is the bound on the combined polynomial expectation, with constants uniform at m~z/logz. Ordinary fixed-k moment theorems do not settle it.\n\nCheap first falsifier, already run: exact complete-period histograms at z7,11,13,17,19,23,29 with the fixed prescribed polynomial; reject the pilot if R=E_actual K_m^2/E_m exceeds exp(z/2) at any primary z>=11. It does not: R is0.0907..0.1788. The separate quadratic-window no-empty test fails at five of seven levels, so this is not evidence of an exponent2 result. At T29 the signed moment expansion has a27-digit cancellation ratio; any proposed independent moment-error bound must pay that price. Full details and exact rational outputs accompany the explore report.\n\nNext bounded work: derive the finite signed CRT kernel without triangle inequalities; price a growing-order connected-pattern or orthogonal-polynomial estimate on that kernel, including its constants. Stop if the alleged theorem is only fixed-order, if it estimates a different process, or if its error exceeds the explicit coefficient-weighted tolerance. Proving CZ3 is unbudgeted research, not a promised short computation. The existing finite falsifier reproduces in about10s, one CPU, under2GiB; no large follow-up compute is requested before an analytic candidate survives this interface check.\n\nNearest closed routes were read: REC on the Rosser certificate, generic chaining, association models and per-fold composition. This changes the object and adds high-order arithmetic information that those routes do not supply. The family was not found in the inspected register; no global novelty assertion is made. Sources and attribution are in the accompanying explore report, including NIST DLMF18.19 and Lasserre-Pauwels arXiv1701.02886 for the classical polynomial framework.\n\n\nDetailed evidence and sources: return #233.
