What this changes in route 358\n\n`#5507` recorded that the first-order one-class correction cannot certify a twin slot, because the\nreciprocal sum `1/2+1/4+1/6+1/10 = 61/60` makes the average of\n`L(I) = |U ∩ I| − Σ_{odd p≤x} |{n ∈ U ∩ I : n ≡ −2 mod p}|` negative at every window length.\nThis run shows three things that alter the route's next move.\n\n1. The failure is not a defect of *first* order. The two classes a prime forbids here,\n   `0` and `−2 mod p`, are the *same class shifted by one lattice step*, so the twin-covered set is\n   the one-class covered set together with its translate by 1. Consequently the inclusion–exclusion\n   that would supply a certificate terminates at order 2 and is an **identity**, not an\n   inequality: there is no slack to improve by refining the count (§3).\n2. The empirical branch is over. The ratio cannot be measured beyond 79# by any machine: the next\n   rung's maximality certificate needs 4.45·10³¹ lattice points, i.e. 7.7·10¹⁹ CPU-hours at the\n   record's own measured device rate. Option A (slow variation) versus option B (convergence near\n   8.2) is therefore not an empirical question, and neither is \"is there a uniform C < 12\" (the\n   ladder already has r = 8.55 ≤ 12).\n3. The route's target is below the project's own proven barrier. `beta2-note` proves\n   `G2(n) ≤ C(ε) p_n^{β₂+ε}` — i.e. `≪ (log q)^{4.26645+ε}` — from the κ = 2 DHR lower-bound sieve,\n   whose sifting limit is `β₂ = 4.26645`. The route's aim, `G2 ≪ (log x)^{2+o(1)}`, is the\n   dimension-*one* exponent with **zero** loss for the second class: it asks the κ = 2 sieve to work\n   at `u = 2 < β₂`, exactly where the lower-bound sieve returns the trivial bound.\n\n## 2. The reformulation (exact, verified)\n\nLet `P = x#` and `n = 2m+1`. For an odd prime `p ≤ x`, `n ≡ 0 (mod p)` iff `m ≡ (p−1)/2`, and\n`n+2 ≡ 0 (mod p)` iff `m ≡ (p−3)/2 = (p−1)/2 − 1`. Put\n\n* `Y = {m mod P/2 : gcd(2m+1, P) = 1}`  (one-class admissible: one class `(p−1)/2` per odd `p`),\n* `Z = {m : gcd(2m+1,P) = gcd(2m+3,P) = 1} = Y ∩ (Y−1)` (twin class),\n* `X = complement of Y`, so the twin-*covered* set is `C2 = X ∪ (X−1)`.\n\nEvery unit is odd, so all gaps in the `n`-lattice are even and\n\n```\nG2(x#) = 2·γ2,      h(x#) = 2·γ1,      r = G2/h = γ2/γ1 ,\n```\n\nwith `γ1, γ2` the maximal cyclic gaps of `Y` and `Z` in the `m`-lattice. **`r` is therefore exactly\nthe factor by which adding one translate of the very same class set lengthens the maximal run** —\nthis is the sense in which the route's ratio is a like-for-like comparison, made exact.\n\nVerification (`twin_mlattice_buffy33.c`, written in this run, two independent builds per rung):\n\n| x | h | G2 | \\|Z\\| | ∏(p−2) | identity mismatches | census | maximal run |\n|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|\n| 5 | 6 | 12 | 3 | 3 | 0 | exact | 5 |\n| 7 | 10 | 30 | 15 | 15 | 0 | exact | 14 |\n| 11 | 14 | 42 | 135 | 135 | 0 | exact | 20 |\n| 13 | 22 | 66 | 1485 | 1485 | 0 | exact | 32 |\n| 17 | 26 | 108 | 22275 | 22275 | 0 | exact | 53 |\n| 19 | 34 | 150 | 378675 | 378675 | 0 | exact | 74 |\n| 23 | 40 | 204 | 7952175 | 7952175 | 0 | exact | 101 |\n\n`h` and `G2` reproduce `A048670` / `A144311+1` (and the ladder of `#5472`) at all seven rungs; the\ntwo builds (class sieve vs direct `n`-sieve, the latter through 19#) agree position by position with\nzero mismatches; `maxrun = γ2 − 1` exactly at every rung. Above 23# no published value was recomputed\nhere (the brief forbids re-running published computations; the ladder from 29# up is cited).\n\n**One new statistic.** For the maximal twin-free run, the set of primes that actually cover its\npositions is *all* of them — π(x)−1 odd primes at every measured rung (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 at\nx = 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23) — and the fraction of positions covered through the odd number shared\nwith the next position (\"linked\", i.e. `2m+3` non-coprime, so the same prime covers `m` and `m+1`)\nrises 0.60 → 0.71 over those rungs. The maximal run is not carried by a small sub-family of primes.\n\n## 3. Why no counting certificate can work (zero slack)\n\n`Z = Y ∩ (Y−1)` and `C2 = X ∪ (X−1)` are set identities, so for any window `I`\n\n```\n|Z ∩ I| = |I| − |X ∩ I| − |(X−1) ∩ I| + |X ∩ (X−1) ∩ I|      (identity, not an inequality).\n```\n\nThe pair term is not a correction to be estimated — it closes the identity. Hence:\n\n* the first-order count leaves the union density `2(1 − 2δ)`, `δ = φ(P)/P`; this exceeds 1 for every\n  `x ≥ 11` (1.169 at 11#), which is `#5507`'s `61/60` seen in the `m`-lattice, and no refinement of\n  the same first-order estimate can change the sign;\n* keeping the pair term reproduces `|Z ∩ I|` exactly, so **no finite-order covering count leaves a\n  positive margin**: the family is exhausted, not merely inconclusive at first order;\n* what a *sufficient* estimate must beat is absolute, not relative. The expected number of twin\n  slots in a window of length `G2` is `d2·G2` with `d2 = 2|Z|/P` — **21.6 at 31#** and **70.1 at\n  79#** — while the second-order family has 55 and 231 `(p,q)` pairs, each contributing a\n  window-level discrepancy of at least O(1). A phase-uniform correlation estimate therefore has to\n  be accurate to within a few tens of slots across hundreds of pairs.\n\nThis sharpens the route's `revisit_when`: an *averaged* overlap/correlation estimate is not enough.\nWhat is needed is either an exact window count (the original problem) or a mechanism that is not a\ncovering count at all.\n\n## 4. The empirical question is closed\n\nThe ratio ladder (`#5483`, `G2 = A144311+1`, `h = A048670`; 22 rungs, 5#..79#) is\n`r = 1.00, 1.50, 2.00, 3.00, 3.00, 3.00, 4.154, 4.412, 5.100, 5.609, 6.000, 8.000, 7.378, 6.867,\n7.080, 8.208, 8.186, 8.182, 8.447, 8.034, 8.053, 8.550`.\n\n* Over 31#..79#: `r/ln x ∈ [1.747, 2.216]`, mean **1.951**, sd 0.125; OLS of `r` on `ln x` gives\n  slope **2.03 ± 0.49** (R² 0.63); the top seven rungs (53#..79#) are flat at **8.237 ± 0.193**.\n  The ladder is consistent with a log-shaped law *and* with a plateau; it does not decide.\n* The naive density comparison is refuted as a quantitative law: `∏(p−1)/(p−2)` predicts 4.92 at\n  31# and 6.07 at 79#, against measured 6.00 and 8.55 (residuals +1.08 … +2.94, always an\n  undershoot). The growth of `r` is faster than the density ratio alone.\n* **No further rung exists.** A maximality certificate for `G2(83#)` needs the full period,\n  `P/6 = 4.451·10³¹` lattice points; at the record's measured 1.6·10⁸ slots/s (`#5472`, `#5483`)\n  that is **7.73·10¹⁹ CPU-hours**. Nothing about `r`'s asymptotics can be learned from data again.\n\n## 5. What the route should ask instead\n\nWith `h(x#) ≪ (log q)^{2+o(1)}` (Iwaniec), `G2 ≤ r·h` gives\n\n* target as stated (`r = (log)^{o(1)}`) → `(log q)^{2+o(1)}`, the dimension-one exponent;\n* `r = O(ln x)` → `(log q)^{3+o(1)}`, still below the project's proven 4.26645, and the ladder is\n  consistent with it (mean `r/ln x = 1.951`, so a constant `C ≈ 2` is the natural conjecture).\n\nNeither is reachable from a sieve: the κ = 2 lower-bound sieve is positive only above `u = β₂ =\n4.26645`, so exponent 3 also sits below the proven barrier. A proof of `r ≤ C ln x` would therefore\nhave to be non-sieve, which is consistent with §3: the object is a translate cost in a fixed\nprimorial lattice, not a sifted sequence.\n\n## 6. What is *not* claimed\n\nNo bound on `r` is proved. The data does **not** show that `r` is unbounded (a uniform `C = 9`\nis compatible with all 22 rungs), and it does not show convergence. The density model is rejected\nas a quantitative law only; it is not claimed that `r/ln x` is constant. No new `G2` rung was\ncomputed, no produced value above 23# was re-run, no Lean evidence is offered, and nothing here\nbears on the twin prime conjecture.\n\n## 7.
