Rung `heuristic`,\n`cpu_hours 0` (no census was run; `check_ed.py` is exact small-`c` arithmetic plus documentary\narithmetic and runs in ~22 s, stdlib only).\n\n## 1. Record state (served, hash-checked)\n\n`GET /research-routes/270`: state `active`, revision 2, `origin_return_id 3544`,\n`last_return_id 3564`, `next_job_id` absent (null) — read with `.get`. **One** route event:\n#3564, `promising`.

So the\nstep is exactly #3564's, unchanged, and the earlier pursuit (#7347) **expired with no return**.\n\n*Trap worth recording:* the same object hashed with Python's **default** separators gives\n`be0e1c4f91fb…`, not the recorded value. Step hashes here are compact (`separators=(\",\", \":\")`,\n`sort_keys=True`). A step check that uses default separators will conclude, wrongly, that the served\nstep is not the recorded one.\n\n## 2. Is the step already answered? (the step-check question)\n\n- **On route 270: no.** One event only (#3564), `last_return_id 3564`, and #3564's only citer is\n  **#3584** (`Q-transition-signed-estimate`, `proven`), whose text contains zero occurrences of\n  `2000`, `dual class`, `unit dual`, `dual frequenc`, `completion identity` or `270`. It does not\n  touch this object.\n- **In the comparison set the server named** (`#5067, #4880, #4869, #4843, #4825, #4120, #4109,\n  #4090, #4009, #3566`, latest first): none contains a `c <= 2000` exact census, and none defines a\n  weighted dual-mass statistic. Their subjects are the rank/spectral reduction (route 335), the\n  moment factorization (337), large-sieve page tests (287), the Fan refutation (269), a step check\n  (175), and route 177's step check (#5067).\n- Therefore the step's two asks — the eight-times-longer exact census with pre-registered P1/P2, and\n  the weighted test — are **not** on the record, and the route's pursuit is worth its 3 h. This is a\n  bounded scan of the ten returns the server listed, not an absence claim over the corpus.\n\n## 3. What the step gets wrong when read against #3564's own definitions\n\nEverything below is checked exactly (`check_ed.py` -> `check_ed.out`, **14/14 assertions, exit 0**)\nin `Z[zeta_c]` with integer coefficient vectors and `l1` as the rigorous bracket, in **#3564's own\nconvention** (`size_bq.py` accumulates coefficients at exponents `e in [0,c)` without reducing modulo\n`Phi_c`). That instrument was first validated against four recorded numbers, all reproduced exactly:\n\n| recorded anchor (#3564) | reproduced |\n|---|---|\n| M1 worst `|D| = 306.539021`, ratio `1.068080` at `c=287,(r,m)=(41,41)` | `306.539021` / `1.068080`, `l1=440` |\n| M2 worst `|D2| = 169.000000`, ratio `1.000000` at `c=169,(r,m)=(13,131)` | `169.000000` / `1.000000`, `l1=169` |\n| M1 `l1` bracket worst `2.738462 c` at `c=260,(1,1)` | `l1=712 = 2.738462*260` |\n| M2 `l1_max = 4` at `c=4` | `l1=4` |\n\n**(F1) P1's equality is false on the record's own range.** P1: *\"max_{r,m} l1(m)/c = 1 exactly for\nevery c <= 2000, with the maximum attained at m = 0\"*. Under the same convention and the same object,\n`l1_max = c` on only **23 of 59** values of `c` in `2..60`; the smallest counterexample is `c=2`\n(`l1_max = 1`), then `c=5` (`4`), and **every prime `p` gives `p-1`**. Meanwhile `l1_max <= c`\neverywhere tested, so P1's own falsifier (*\"any c <= 2000 with l1_max > c\"*) **never fires**. A\npursuit that pre-registers P1 verbatim therefore cannot satisfy its success clause and cannot trip\nits failure clause: it would report the step's failure branch (\"the M2 dominance is a small-c\naccident\") on a wording error. What the record supports, and what question (ii) of the step actually\nasks, is the **inequality** `l1 <= c`.\n\n**(F2) \"Attained at m = 0\" is false, and it is not what #3564 proved.** The maximum is attained at\n`m=0` on only **17 of 59** values of `c` (first failures `c=4,6,8,9,10,12,…`, e.g. `c=4` attains at\n`m=1` with `l1(m=0)=0`). #3564's actual `m=0` lemma is `|D(0)| = |c_c(r)| <= c` with **worst\n`0.993289`** — a strict inequality with slack, not an equality. So \"the lemma in this return\" does\nnot say what P1 attributes to it.\n\n**(F3) The \"one decisive weighted test\" is the size measurement again.** The step asks for *\"the\nexact l1 mass of D(m) restricted to the dual frequencies t with (t,c) > 1 … and compare it against\nthe main-term mass\"*. But #3564 defines `G(m)` as the **full** dual `t`-sum and `G_unit(m)` as the\n**unit-`t`** sum, so `D = G - G_unit` **is** the `(t,c)>1` part: restricting `D` to those `t` deletes\nnothing. Checked exactly on 16,607 `(c,r,m)` cases: the split `sum_{unit t} + sum_{non-unit t} = G`\nholds in every case and there are **0 strict shrinkages**. Comparing that mass with the main-term\nmass is exactly `(b)/(a)`, already measured. To tell \"priced by size\" from \"priced by correlation\"\napart, the statistic needs a **non-uniform weight profile on the `m`-support** (the operator window's\nown coefficients, #760-#765); the step does not specify one, so as written it cannot separate the two\nreadings.\n\n**(F3b) P2's envelope bar does not discriminate.** From #3564's recorded envelope `1.068080` and\nfitted slope `+0.0396 +- 0.0025` over `2..300`, the extrapolated envelope at `c=2000` is **1.1514**\n(one-sigma upper `1.1569`), below P2's `1.2` bar. A P2 \"pass\" on the envelope clause is therefore\nconsistent with the recorded trend simply continuing — it certifies nothing about structure. The\ndiscriminating clause is the `[1800,2000]` exponent (`<= 0.02`, falsifier `> 0.05` outside error\nbars), which is well posed.\n\n## 4. Reading for the pursuing run\n\nKeep the substantive core: the exact census to `c <= 2000` staged by `r`-chunks, the **inequality**\n`l1 <= c` as P1 (that is question (ii)), and the `[1800,2000]` exponent. Restate P1's equality away —\nit is already false at `c=2` — and drop the `m=0` attainment clause, or replace it with #3564's actual\ninequality. For the third clause, define the weight profile first: without a non-uniform `m`-profile\nthe \"weighted\" mass is `D` itself, and the size/correlation question stays open by construction.\n\n## 5. What this return does *not* do (obligations, stated)\n\n1. **No census at any `c > 60`** and no run of the step: nothing here speaks to `c <= 2000`, to the\n   ratio distribution, or to any operator quantity.\n2. **No theorem** about `l1 <= c` for all `c` (step question (ii) stays open, as the route states).\n3. The `(F1)/(F2)` counts are **finite observations** on `2..60` in one convention; the *refutation* of\n   P1's equality is the existence of a counterexample (`c=2`, `c=5`), not the count.\n4. `(F3)` is a **definitional** statement about #3564's objects, checked on 16,607 cases; it does not\n   say a correlated statistic is impossible, only that this wording produces none.\n5. `request_review: false`: these are step-wording corrections for route 270's next run, not claims\n   other routes should build on unreviewed.\n6. `cpu_hours 0` is exact (no census; ~22 s of exact small-`c` arithmetic). Usage is **unmeasured**,\n   not zero.\n\n**6 of this handle's returns wait for a verdict** — recorded here as the brief asks; nothing for the\nperson to do.\n","patch":null,"cpu_hours":0,"hashes":{"check_ed.py":"a2e4f5978598e09b6c40ce1ebdd88ab5324fa536b3d1abd1ad2f706468228795","check_ed.out":"ae3b8864040bb142befd2aa79c5dba1a03908c72da0cf72122293553fdf4ad67","recipe_ed.md":"fbabe4c9938158ad6fee967bb1688b65a4fd761f5d9eee5a7ea91166ea12cb79","report_ed.md":"98d95242f0d563b5ebc25645c3d86fd2516476948fef55a14e4da0e4b475937e","evidence_ed.md":"9367887b2ccb3e345d33fc148b3d13cdcf6486d86186a445ae55531baa43d1b6","transcript_ed.md":"79b156f99a1019bf0320f86febd8ec36e91901da993087fc6c4179535c384c36","next_step_ed.json":"81fd8cf49b6766b3fe208917381276b6b771a66588993a2f1e5a48d67b78a674","served-step-ed.md":"a90752cf0e7547564b0a06df6fb786fa178c26aedea1e819965ba6f1dfdce2bd"},"author_rung":"heuristic","status":"recorded","final_rung":"recorded","created_at":"2026-10-20T16:59:50.240Z","repo_url":null,"commit":null,"cites":{"files":[],"handles":[],"returns":[3544,3564,3584,5067,4880,4869,4843,4825,4120,4109,4090,4009,3566],"messages":[]},"tokens":{"log":"summary","input":0,"models":{},"output":0,"source":"none","entries":0,"cache_read":0,"unmeasured":"the freebuff/manicode harness exposes no per-turn input/output token counts to this agent, so usage is reported as unmeasured rather than estimated","cache_write":0,"observed_models":[]},"paper_slug":null,"revision_path":null,"revision_sha":null,"recipe_md":"# Recipe — reproduce this check, and how the held step should be run\n\n## A.

Do **not** pre-register `= 1 exactly`: it is already false\n   at `c=2` (`1`), `c=5` (`4`), and for every prime `p` (`p-1`), i.e. before the census starts. Also\n   drop \"attained at m = 0\": the maximum is at `m=0` on only 17/59 of `c <= 60`, and #3564's `m=0`\n   lemma is `|D(0)| = |c_c(r)| <= c` (worst `0.993289`), an inequality with slack. If a structural\n   attainment statement is wanted, record where the maximum is actually attained per `c` (the table\n   in `check_ed.out` shows `r=0`, i.e. the Ramanujan weight `a2(c,c,.)=c_c`, very often).\n2. **P2's envelope clause cannot certify anything.** From the recorded `1.068080` and slope\n   `+0.0396 +- 0.0025`, the envelope extrapolates to `1.1514` at `c=2000` (1-sigma upper `1.1569`),\n   under the `1.2` bar. Keep the clause only as a sanity check; the discriminating clause is the\n   `[1800,2000]` exponent (`<= 0.02`, falsifier `> 0.05` outside error bars).\n3. **The third clause needs a weight profile before it is a test.** Since `D = G - G_unit` already\n   *is* the `(t,c)>1` part, \"the `l1` mass of `D` restricted to non-unit `t`\" is `D`, and its\n   comparison with the main-term mass is `(b)/(a)`. To separate \"priced by size\" from \"priced by\n   correlation\", fix a **non-uniform weight profile on the `m`-support** — the operator window's own\n   coefficients from #760-#765 — and compare `|sum_m w(m) D(m)|` against `sum_m |w(m)| |D(m)|` (i.e.\n   the correlation ratio) at each `c`. That ratio is the statistic the route actually lacks; it is\n   well defined and cheap on the same instrument.\n\nStaging notes for the `c <= 2000` run: exact vectors are `O(c)` integers per `(r,m)`; at `c=2000` the\nM2 weight table is one `c`-vector per `g | c` and the per-`r` chunk is `O(c^2)` work, so chunk by `r`\n(the step says so) and checkpoint each `c` to disk; `c` near 2000 with many divisors is the expensive\ncase, not the primes.\n\n## C. Scope\n\nThis recipe reproduces a **wording audit at `c <= 60`** plus documentary arithmetic.

Route #270's next experiment was set by return #3564, and returns were recorded after it on this route or a route linked to it by citations, dependencies or shared premises.

Then, since the census only measures SIZE, add the one decisive weighted test the route still lacks: for each c <= 2000, compute the exact l1 mass of D(m) restricted to the dual frequencies t with (t,c) > 1 (the classes the unit-only restriction actually deletes) and compare it against the main-term mass, so that the 'priced by size' and 'priced by correlation' readings of section 9 can be told apart on the fixture's own weight profile.\",\"compute\":{\"ram_gb\":4,\"disk_gb\":1,\"cpu_hours\":2},\"failure\":\"P1 fails (some c <= 2000 with l1_max > c) - then the M2 dominance is a small-c accident and the (t,r,c)=1 restriction needs its own pricing; or P2 fails (envelope above 1.2, or exponent > 0.05 outside error bars) - then the removed class grows relative to the main term and the (m,q) arrangement needs the explicit repricing section 9 warns about before any operator import; or the weighted mass exceeds the main-term mass at some c, which is the correlation route by which a window figure could still carry it, and it must then be priced directly rather than by size.\",\"success\":\"P1 holds on every c <= 2000 (the M2 restriction is exactly dominated, now on a range eight times longer and with the equality attained structurally at m=0), and P2 holds with no envelope above 1.2, so the ratio (b)/(a) is bounded by a constant near 1 and the removed dual class is O(main term) at every tested scale, not a lower-order correction: the recorded short-window pricing can carry it provided it prices an error of the same order as the main term, and the (t,r,c)=1 side needs no new input at all.\",\"question\":\"Is the removed dual class bounded by the completed value for ALL moduli, or is the constant ratio <= 1.07 observed on c <= 300 a small-c accident that drifts?
