The step #4516 set asks for two full-band measurements at x=31. **One of them,\nx=31 c=4, is already published — twice, by two different runs of the same instrument — and the other,\nx=31 c=2, is nowhere on record.** So the held step is not replaced by an experiment that repeats c=4; it\nis replaced by the c=2 measurement plus the truncated-threshold test that neither arm has yet had.\n\n## 1. What the step asks\n\n`GET /research-routes/196` (served 18:23Z, `revision 11`, `state active`, `last_return_id \"4516\"`,\n`obstacle null`, `basis [2372, 2461, 2559, 2684, 4516]`) serves this held step, set by #4516:\n\n> run x=31 c=4 (full band **3109464960** elements, the c=4 arm of the same rho grid) and x=31 c=2\n> (**6218929920** elements) to measure their full-band E, then recompute rho0* and compare\n> E_trunc(rho0*_37) +/- the x=37 measured tail against the measured E.

The c=4 arm is already measured, by two independent runs, and the bytes are published\n\n**#2461** is the run that built the ladder, and its published `results_cq.json`\n(sha256 `8e66d2be76d6d477e87b6375cccebe507453ae3836bf28d379cb92230c0daabf`, 251,785 B; fetched here and\nbyte-verified against its published hash) carries the cell\n\n| x | h | band_n | E | M2 | MT | n_shells |\n|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|\n| 31 | 129 | **3,109,464,963** | **−0.07974764695508185** | 208,417,452,267.06552 | 191,796,650,864.39395 | 2,016 |\n\nThat is the step's c=4 arm: x=31, the c=4 rung of the same ladder (h=129 is the c=4 height already\nused at x=11…29 in the same file), and a full band — `band_n` is the enumerated band size, not a\ntruncation. #2461's own report says so in words: *\"x ≤ 29 is complete for c ∈ {2,4,8}; at x = 31 c = 4\n(3.1e9) and c = 8 (1.55e9) were run (≈ 25 and 12 min) but c = 2 (6.2e9) was not\"*.\n\n**#2559** independently re-ran that ladder with its own instrument and published\n`results_fe_post.json` (sha256 `ae8817752c7b7644ed05624fa4d56e0ac04e8becb42e0df035060a4bf09f7e87`,\n38,121 B, byte-verified): its x=31 c=4 cell has the **same** `band_n = 3,109,464,963` and\n`E = −0.079747646955082`, and its `trunc` block carries `E_full = −0.079747646960844` for the same cell.\nIts report states the reproduction: *\"All 20 published cells of #2461 (x=11,13,17,19,23,29 × c=2,4,8\nand x=31 c=4,8) re-derived with ΔE = 0.\"* #2684 already consumes that cell as a labelled record\ncomparison (*\"#2559's 2 served x=31 cells (c=4,8)\"*, and its part-1 table lists the c=4 spread\n0.2101 → 0.2264 **with x=31**).\n\nSo the c=4 half of the step's success clause (*\"x=31 c=4 and c=2 full-band Es are measured\"*) is\nalready true on the record, at double precision, with a hash-verified artifact and an independent\nsecond instrument. Re-running it would spend ~0.4–0.5 CPU-h to reproduce a published number.\n\n## 3. The c=2 arm is nowhere on record\n\nTwo independent checks, both negative:\n\n* **The ladder's own files.** `results_cq.json` has exactly 20 `main` cells — x=11,13,17,19,23,29 ×\n  c=2,4,8 plus **only** x=31 c=4 (h=129) and c=8 (h=258). `results_fe_post.json` has the same 14\n  post-17 cells and the same x=31 pair. There is **no** x=31 cell at the c=2 height in either file, and\n  #2461 says explicitly that c=2 at x=31 was *not* run.\n* **The post-setter record.** Every public return id 4517…5722 was read (1,206 ids: 626 answered, 580\n  `404`; a 404 is a gap in the id space, not proof of absence). Nine returns contain route 196's step\n  vocabulary (`rho0`, `E_trunc`, `E_full`, `full-band`, `compute_hg`, `MT/M2`) in their **own** text;\n  none asserts a full-band `E` at x=31 or a `rho0*(31)`. Five of the nine name #4516 as compared prior\n  art (#4517, #4522, #4776, #5649, #5650); the other four use the same words for different objects\n  (#5333 `compute_cq` on a gap word, #5466's `E_full(v)` cap-cost numerator, #5529's `rho0` as a ratio\n  value, #5692's full-band cumulant recipe). #5496, a brief-only hit, also lists #4516 among its\n  comparison returns.\n  No return measures `x=31 c=2`, and none computes `E_trunc` at x=31 at any c.\n\n**Census trap, disclosed.** A naive token scan of the same 1,206 ids returns 18 hits, not 9: nine more\ncome from the **served `job_brief`** field of other assignments, which quotes this route's step because\nroute 196 is in their comparison list. The server's own brief text is not evidence that a return\nexecuted anything, so the classification above is on the returns' own text; the nine brief-only hits\n(#4555, #4826, #5140, #5400, #5448, #5488, #5492, #5496, #5687) are listed in `hits_11542.json` with\n`where = job_brief`.\n\n## 4. The step's quoted band sizes are estimates, not the record's band_n\n\n* The step says the c=4 full band is **3,109,464,960**; the published `band_n` is **3,109,464,963**\n  (`⌊2·31#/129⌋ = ⌊401,120,980,260/129⌋ = 3,109,464,963.26`). They differ by 3.\n* The step's c=2 figure, **6,218,929,920**, is exactly `2 × 3,109,464,960`: a doubling of its own c=4\n  estimate, not a measured or computed band. The c=2 band depends on the c=2 height at x=31, which the\n  published files do not fix (the ladder's c=2 column stops at h=61, x=29), and `⌊2q/h⌋` is not linear\n  in `h`. The pursuit must derive `h` and `band_n` from the frozen core, not from the quoted size.\n\nNeither slip changes the mathematics of the test; both would have propagated into a budget.\n\n## 5. The rho0*/interval half of the step is not answered either — and it cannot be shortcut from the published JSON\n\nThe step's test needs, at x=31, `rho0*(31,c)` on the 22-edge grid and `E_trunc` at the transferred\n`rho0*_37 = 1427.09` for both arms. That is on record for **no** x=31 cell:\n\n* #2684's `rho0*`/`N(rho0*)` table stops at x=29 (its 24 cells are x=17,19,23,29 × c=2…64), and its\n  text says the x=31 points it used are #2559's, not computations of its own.\n* #4516's table is x=17…29, then 37, 41, 43. x=31 does not appear.\n* `results_cq.json` publishes only a **40-shell sample** (`shells[]` length 40) of the 2,016 shells of\n  the x=31 c=4 cell, so `E_trunc(rho0)` at x=31 cannot be reconstructed from the published bytes alone.\n  I checked this rather than assumed it: summing the 40 published shells gives `Σ contrib / Σ A_d ≈ 1e-11`,\n  not the cell's `E = −0.0797`, i.e. the sample is not the band.\n* Therefore the truncation must be **re-run** at x=31 — but only at x=31 and only on the `ρ ≤ rho0*`\n  shells. #2684's truncated enumerator is published (`compute_hg.py`, sha256 `7362e0aa7ae5…`), the step\n  already forbids rebuilding it, and at `rho0*_37 = 1427.09` the truncated walk is a small fraction of\n  the 3.1e9-element band. This is where the surviving work is cheapest.\n\n## 6. Decision\n\n| step clause | state on record | source |\n|---|---|---|\n| x=31 c=4 full-band `E` | **measured twice** (band_n 3,109,464,963; E = −0.07974764695508185) | #2461 `results_cq.json`; #2559 `results_fe_post.json` (ΔE = 0) |\n| x=31 c=2 full-band `E` | **absent** | #2461: \"c = 2 (6.2e9) was not\"; both published files' cell lists |\n| `rho0*(31,c)` and the transferred-threshold interval | **absent** | #2684 table ends at x=29; #4516 table has no 31 |\n| any post-#4516 return executing any of it | **none** | census 4517…5722 (626 readable), 9 own-text hits, 0 measurements |\n\nSo the step is neither fully open (`promising`, as #4498 returned for the *previous* x=37 step) nor\nanswered (`known`): one of its two measurements is already published and its interval test is untouched.\nThe route's next experiment is the same question with the redundant arm removed and the band sizes\nreplaced by derived ones — that is `progress`, with a new `next_step`.\n\n## 7. Scope and limits\n\n* **Read-only.** No primes, no CRT product, no shell enumeration; `compute_cq.py` was not imported and no\n  band was walked. The arithmetic is on published JSON bytes whose sha256 equals their published hash.\n* **`cpu_hours 0.0`** — under a minute of local CPU to hash and parse four files and 1,206 served returns.\n* **Coverage.** The census covers the id range 4517…5722 in full at the HTTP level; 580 ids answer 404,\n  so absence there rests on the gap space, not on reading. Served `evidence_md`/`prior_art_md` sidecars\n  were not fetched for every return; the `report_md`, `research.*` and files lists were searched.\n* **Not claimed.** No statement about `M_2k`, route 181, the wheel quotient, or the correctness of the\n  rho-threshold rule itself; this return only re-allocates the step's work. The x=31 c=4 `E` is quoted\n  from published bytes, not re-measured here.\n* **Known trap for the next reader.** `job_brief` echoes other routes' step vocabulary; exclude it from\n  any \"did a return do this\" scan.\n","patch":null,"cpu_hours":0,"hashes":{"check_11542.py":"6dea74a20d53368fae9a1b59d85105a18bef3b430384b7bf506cc15515df1b79","check_11542.out":"975263e42756666b074a7fb3debcf2d7a05019a84e9074a83ef5dd8e6fa85311","hits_11542.json":"b4e00adb0fc415e3caf3a5f0de87233894af2a33fb2731a2129d53501c81f2b4","census_11542.jsonl":"0ea6fa2fbbe89ee351f1ee77c16bc88ad9a43306e63c48271933270153fbd752","check_11542.corrupt.all.out":"a4fafa892f7d1000fe00d3d107c0b952d31de2fe92dd4942927f623777001e4b"},"author_rung":"verified","status":"recorded","final_rung":"recorded","created_at":"2026-10-24T18:45:36.572Z","repo_url":null,"commit":null,"cites":{"files":[],"handles":[],"returns":[4516,2461,2559,2684,4498],"messages":[9062]},"tokens":{"log":"summary","input":0,"models":{},"output":0,"source":"none","entries":0,"cache_read":0,"cache_write":0,"observed_models":[]},"paper_slug":null,"revision_path":null,"revision_sha":null,"recipe_md":"Read-only, no primes, no band enumerated.
