Outcome `progress`: the step is replaced by a corrected one\n\nRoute **287** (maximal interval-sup large-sieve inequality for the two-sequence dual), stage `first_look`, general mode.\n\n**What changed since the last comparison.** The only new input is return **#5398**: step check job #10787, recorded `promising`, event 2129, 2026-10-22T11:56Z. Its two `CORRECTION_buffy2.md` notes (shas `002f8200…` and `d9556dbf…`) only map attached files. They change no number. The route is now revision 4 with basis [4120, 5398]. In the lane chat, no message on route 287 sits among the last 30, so there is no in-flight claim. The eight comparison returns #5398 already screened (5393, 5103, 4880, 4869, 4843, 4825, 4467, 4452) were not re-surveyed. I reuse their conclusion: none touches chi_w.\n\n**What #5398 settles, re-checked here without running the experiment.**\n\n1. **No return computes the step.** After #4120 the route has only #5398, which ran no instance. The record's largest c is 2,268,945. The minimum chi is 3.1813, against a requirement of x^(7/400) = 1.380384 at x = 1e8. The minimum sits at T = c/M in 45/45 rows. These figures come from #4120's `probe_bh.out.json`.\n2. **The step's method and question disagree on the shape (P1).** I re-derived this with 40-digit Decimal arithmetic. At x = 1e8, M = x^(14/25) = 30199.5172, and c lies in [x^(19/20−7/300), x^(19/20)] = [25,902,002.0, 39,810,717.1]. So c/M lies in [857.696, 1318.257], not 100. If c/M = 100 is held at this M, then c = 3,019,951.7. That is only 1.33× the record's largest c, and it is not the band.\n3. **The Parseval check is mis-stated (P2).** I read #4120's `probe_bh.py` (blob `4a1025e7…`, sha-verified). Line 11 and line 174 set K = #{m ∈ [M,2M) : (m,c)=1}, and line 192 computes `parseval_ratio = Σ|ŵ|²/(c·K)`. The step instead checks `Σ_t|ŵ|² = cM`, which fails at every band modulus because K/M is 0.266–0.801. Per #5398 E3, under the full two-cosine weight the ratio to c·K is 3.53–7.21. That is because the exact identity is Σ|ŵ|² = c·Σ_m|F(m)|².\n4. **The declared memory is too small (P3).** #5398's per-position inventory is 193 B certain and 472 B full. That gives 4.66 / 11.39 GiB at c = 2.59e7 and 7.19 / 17.58 GiB at c = 4e7, against the step's `ram_gb: 2`, which only covers the record's 2.27e6.\n\n**Decision.** #5398 answers part of the step: its premises, not its measurement. As written, the step cannot be executed faithfully. Its identity check fails by construction, its memory figure falls short of the band, and its shape is ambiguous. #5398's \"promising\" note asks the pursuit to choose. This return makes the choice instead. It replaces the step with one that keeps all three questions and adopts reading (B), because the question sentence fixes the corpus shape. It keeps one c/M = 100 row (c ≈ 3.02e6) as the bridge to the record. It also states the Parseval identity in the form the probe actually computes, prices memory for the band, and leaves the scientific questions and the failure rule unchanged. No chi value was computed.\n\n5 returns wait for a verdict.\n","patch":null,"cpu_hours":0.01,"hashes":{},"author_rung":"measured","status":"recorded","final_rung":"recorded","created_at":"2026-10-22T13:17:47.030Z","repo_url":null,"commit":null,"cites":{"files":[],"handles":[],"returns":[4120,5398,714],"messages":[8564]},"tokens":{"log":"summary","input":106,"models":{"claude-opus-5-5":20774},"output":20774,"source":"reported","entries":0,"cache_read":2256446,"cache_write":136899,"observed_models":[]},"paper_slug":null,"revision_path":null,"revision_sha":null,"recipe_md":"# Recipe (job #10802, step check, nothing run but arithmetic and reading)\n\n1. `GET <project>/return/5398` lists the files `CORRECTION_buffy2.md` (sha `002f8200…`, 1650 B, and `d9556dbf…`, 2391 B).

Holding c/M = 100 instead gives c = 3,019,951.7, only 1.33× the record (re-derived in 40-digit Decimal).\n  - (P2) probe_bh.py (blob 4a1025e7…) defines K = #{m∈[M,2M):(m,c)=1} (l.11, l.174) and parseval_ratio = Σ|ŵ|²/(c·K) (l.192). The step's check Σ|ŵ|² = cM therefore fails by construction (K/M = 0.266–0.801). Under the full two-cosine weight the identity is Σ|ŵ|² = c·Σ_m|F(m)|² (ratio to c·K is 3.53–7.21).\n  - (P3) at 193/472 B per t-position, c = 2.59e7 needs 4.66/11.39 GiB and c = 4e7 needs 7.19/17.58 GiB.
