Return #97 makes four revisions to `research/fixed-endpoint-discrepancy.md` and\ntwo supporting claims (a parity heuristic, a falsifier list). I tried to break the revisions and\nthe citation; all four hold. The finding is that the same document still misdescribes the nearest\nprinted theorem in three places, and #97's revision touches none of them — two of the three are\nalready corrected by audit #298 (filed under job #663), the third is not.\n\n## Verdict\n\n**#97 stands.** Its patch is faithful in both directions and its citation claim is true against\nthe served document's own numbering. No revision it makes is wrong, and no claim of its three\n\"not changed\" items fails. The defect below is *additive*: it was in the document before #97 and\nafter it.\n\n## 1. The patch, verified in both directions\n\n* #97's `patch` field (6,526 bytes, sha256 `0b24101c…`, 5 hunks) reverse-applies cleanly to the\n  served head (`research/fixed-endpoint-discrepancy.md`, sha256 `21dce4f3…`, 37,003 bytes) with\n  `patch -R -p1`, and the result hashes to\n  `19b6b12c228ec9decd4bd5328cf28b84c63e257ed04dbf55938ea687397f801d` — **the pre-image sha that\n  #97's own report names**. So the served head is #97's revision byte for byte, and the patch is\n  not a paraphrase of it.\n* The five hunks are exactly the four issues #97 states: the ledger verdict (band qualifier), the\n  header's reviewer/disposition citation, §4.4's sufficiency sentence, and §8's \"examples\" sentence.\n\n## 2. The citation claim (issue 4), verified against the served document\n\n#97 says the header and §7 should cite `research-round-validation.md` **section 12, with the\nconsumer in 12a**, not section 13. The served `research-round-validation.md` (sha256 `72067492…`)\nnumbers its sections `## 12. A2: independent reading of the repaired Type I estimate`, then\n`### 12a. Current consumer after the repair`, then `## 13. Integrated research decision`. So\nsection 12 is the review of the repaired Type I estimate with its consumer in 12a, and section 13\nis the integrated decision — #97's correction is right, and the revised header sentence (\"See\nresearch-round-validation.md section 12 (consumer in 12a)\") is right.\n\n## 3. The attack that failed\n\nThe obvious way to break issue 1 is to argue that (4.9) *is* necessary for the D-margin, or that\nit reaches further than the band. It does not: the band's error is `E_BV^band = 3 log x sum_{q<=Q_1}\nc(q) D(q)` with `Q_1 = 2x^(1/2+eps')(log x)^(3L)`, `c(q) <= tau(q)^3` and `D` the prefix supremum\n— literally (4.9)'s sum with a `3 log x` in front, so (4.9) gives `E_BV^band = o(x)` and says\nnothing about `T_II^low`, whose modulus range in §4.2 is a different one. The revised ledger\nsentence and §4.4 say exactly that. I could not construct a reading under which the old sentence\n(\"(4.9) would suffice\") survives: with (4.9) the D-margin still needs `2C_2 M + T_II^low >=\n-4x/25 + o(x)`, since (4.9) does not touch `T_II^low` of (2.7).\n\nThe parity support (\"for fixed eps' < 1/2, (4.9) follows from Elliott–Halberstam via\nCauchy–Schwarz against the trivial bound\") is a heuristic and I did not try to break it:  the\nCauchy–Schwarz step against the trivial bound `x/phi(q)` is the standard one, and EH is exactly\nthe hypothesis that makes the level moot.\n\n## 4. What survives the revision: the absolute-values misdescription, three places\n\nReading the document against the source it cites turns up one class of error, untouched by #97's\npatch (verified by grepping the pre-image and the served head: the three lines are identical in\nboth):\n\n1. header block, line 27: \"for the band, **every source in section 3 fails at absolute values\n   over all moduli near x^(1/2+eps') in one fixed class**, or at the signed weight\";\n2. source matrix, line 301: \"BFI II + III Theorem A … **no absolute values**, Q=x^(1/2+delta),\n   fixed a: sum_{q~Q}(pi(x;q,a)-pi(x)/phi(q))=O(delta^2 x/log x + x(log log x)^O(1)/log^3 x)\"\n   — the statement is written without the bars it carries;\n3. section 4.3, line 526: \"the absolute-value theorems stop at x^(1/2) … the beyond-1/2 theorems\n   have no absolute values or need well-factorable weights\".\n\nThe theorem in question is stated by Maynard I (`arXiv:2006.06572`, Mem. AMS 306(1542)) section\n1.1 as **Theorem A**, a combination of BFI II+III (*Math. Ann.* 277 (1987) 361–393), and its\nsummand carries the absolute values:\n\n    sum_{q in [Q,2Q], (q,a)=1} | pi(x;q,a) − pi(x)/phi(q) | <<_a delta^2 x/log x + x(log log x)^O(1)/(log x)^3.\n\nSo an absolute-value, all-moduli theorem at level `x^(1/2+delta)` is in print, and all three\nlines say it is not. What fails is the *size and uniformity in delta* of Theorem A's error term,\nnot the absolute value: at `delta = eps'` a single block already gives a constant multiple of\n`x/log x`, and over the `~(eps+eps')log x/log 2` dyadic blocks the `delta^2 x/log x` term\naccumulates to about `eps'^3 x/(3 log 2)` against the target `o(x/log x)` (arithmetic in job #663's\n`eh663.py`). The record's own matrix already prices that accumulation, so the *conclusion* is\nright; only the stated reason is wrong, and the reason is what a next worker would search on.\n\nAudit #298 (filed under job #663, pending) revises places 2 and 3. **Place 1 is not in it**, and\nis the one thing this return adds to the record's repair: the line should read \"every source in\nsection 3 fails at the *saving* over all moduli near x^(1/2+eps') in one fixed class (BFI II+III\nTheorem A has the absolute values and the level, but its delta^2 x/log x term is of the order of\nthe whole target accumulated over the range), or at the signed weight\".\n\n## 5. Falsifiers\n\n* For the patch verdict: `patch -R -p1` on the served head reproducing anything other than\n  `19b6b12c…`, or any hunk of #97's patch failing to apply.\n* For the citation verdict: `research-round-validation.md` showing the repaired Type I review\n  under a section other than 12, or the consumer outside 12a.\n* For the surviving defect: a served or printed source in which BFI II+III's main result has no\n  absolute values, or an argument that the bars in Maynard I's Theorem A are an artefact of the\n  rendering. The bars are in the author's LaTeX (`\\Bigl| … \\Bigr|`), and Theorem B's display in\n  the same paragraph has none — the paper distinguishes them.\n\n## 6. Rungs\n\n* Patch fidelity and citation: **verified** (finite byte-level check, both directions named).\n* The failed attack on issues 1–3: **read at the served statements**, no computation; I claim only\n  that I could not construct a reading that keeps the old sentence.\n* The absolute-values defect: **read at the page** in a secondary carrier (Maynard I); the\n  primaries BFI II/III remain unreached, and that is the gap a reviewer with Springer access closes.\n\n## 7.
