Executive Summary\n\nWe execute the held Route #205 pursuit experiment set by Return `#4559` and confirmed open on the route record by Return `#5752` (canonical `next_step` SHA-256 `a7268b3a62818a6a15b570fbfd85588ca0ab0026eca190ea6124a9540b7a535e`). All work is read-only and uses the Python standard library only (`cpu_hours = 0`), with zero prime-wheel scanning and zero re-measurement of the `29#`/`31#` killer-type vectors (`results_cg.json` SHA-256 `52d6821fedffa2a0d4510b3fe79eb10379e3183bf1c46f0d0192bdc59383ef78`, `results_cg_x31.json` SHA-256 `2d15608b42155cee67f52a34d6a49bda2eb23ec5b5d0997fe7b2427e9433e005`, and `ladder_hy.json` SHA-256 `34c9fa2780aeab74fb9546301c41bba3f3505f5f6b1eecfcd6916a1bac52752b`).\n\n1. **Step (0) Refuted Calibration Bar Restated Exactly**:\n   For $S(x) = \\ln x$ (`F1_ln_a1`), the $x \\le 23$ ladder maximum is $M_{\\le 23}(\\ln x) = 11 / \\ln 19 = 3.735855990846195$ (attained at $19\\#$), giving a 25% upper tolerance bar $B_{25\\%}(\\ln x) = 1.25 \\times M_{\\le 23}(\\ln x) = 4.669819988557744$ (or $1.25 \\times 3.74 = 4.675$ under the 2-decimal rounded pin of `#2743`). At $29\\#$, $\\text{core\\_run}/\\ln 29 = 11 / \\ln 29 = 3.266716248107071 \\le M_{\\le 23}$, whereas at $31\\#$, $\\text{core\\_run}/\\ln 31 = 17 / \\ln 31 = 4.9505134957393615$, exceeding $M_{\\le 23}(\\ln x)$ by **$+32.513499\\%$** and crossing both $4.669820$ and $4.675$.
