So **failure**, exactly as pre-registered — with the\none addition that both decorrelated families keep their sign across the two rungs (`-/ -` and `-/ -`),\nso what the test reports is a stable, small negative offset, not a sign flip.\n\n## 2. The instrument gates (rung: verified)\n\nThe default weight path of the new producer is the published statistic, and it reproduces it:\n`T = -0.31975778965026352` vs #4749's `-0.31975778965026347` (rel 1.7e-16) and, at j = 30,\n`T = +0.84478237299271841` vs #4749's `+0.84478237299269787` (rel 2.4e-14), **bit-identical to\n#5780's** `+0.8447823729927184`; `V_end` is bit-identical to the published value at both rungs, so the\nsummation order matches. `y/Q/nE`, `L`, `x` all match. The other gates: `N_w` from the position form\nequals `sum_e w_e D_e` from the modulus form to `<= 1.5e-13` relative (the identity #12010 checked at\nj = 20/21); the four families' `rho` and `1-rho^2` recompute from stored `V`/`C` exactly; #12010's own\nindependent probe at j = 26 reproduces bit-for-bit (`T` to 5e-6, `rho` to 5e-6, its 5-decimal text).\n\nControls. Positive: with the signs of `f` aligned to `c_log` (an intentionally coherent object) the same\ninstrument reports `|T_log| = 889.2` (j = 26) and `3240.0` (j = 30) — the test is not blind to\ncoherence, and the observed `|T_w| <= 0.93` is a property of `f`, not of the instrument. Negative\n(7 named corrupt controls, each exit 1): theta -> 1/2 (`rung_params`), a 1e-9 tamper in the j = 30 row\n(`published_j30`), a decorrelated family forced to rho = 0.999 (`rescaling_split`), #12010's j = 26\nvalues as 0.9999 (`prior_probe_j26`), the positive control dropped (`planted_power`), the identity\nresidual forced to 1e-3 (`identity_N_equals_sum_wD`), and one family forced to T = 3.5\n(`preregistered_verdict`/`null_magnitudes` — the verdict rule is computed from the numbers).\n`check_j3.py`: **13 checks, 13 PASS, 0 FAIL**, exit 0.\n\n## 3. What this changes (rung: measured at these two rungs; nothing asymptotic)\n\n1. **The weight axis is closed at j = 26 and j = 30.** Four a-priori weights — the two published-scale\n   families and the two the step named as decorrelated — give `|T_w| <= 0.93` at both rungs. The\n   `T`-statistic is linear in `f` with an **exact** variance under the route's random-sign null, so this\n   is not a Monte Carlo result: the observed signed sums are what the null predicts.\n2. **The route's own headline quantity is now measured.** `rho_route(w) = sum_e w_e D_e / sum_e w_e\n   |D_e|` (the ratio in the route's contribution text, `w = log(x/e)`) is `-0.0271` at j = 26 and\n   `+0.0413` at j = 30: cancellation *is* available in level — the absolute budget exceeds the signed sum\n   by 36.9x and 24.2x. The two decorrelated weights give only 4.8x/4.6x and 4.2x/3.7x, i.e. the\n   published log weight is the most incoherent of the four. Combined with (1): that level is exactly\n   the random-sign scale, so it cannot be *priced* above a matched null — the choice lane A faces is\n   not \"signed or absolute\" on this evidence but \"absolute, unless a model that beats the random-sign\n   null is exhibited\".\n3. **The two knobs are now both measured, and the route has no cheaper reopening on either.** This\n   return does not close route 264 (a finite census cannot), but the reopening is a different object\n   (see section 5), not a rung, a cutoff, or a weight.\n\n## 4. Rung per claim, and what is not claimed\n\n- **measured**: the eight `(N_w, V_w, T_w, rho, 1-rho^2)` values above, `rho_route` and the gain at\n  both rungs, and the two positive-control values.\n- **verified**: the two instrument gates against the published rows (`V` bit-identical, `T` to 1e-10),\n  the identity `N_w = sum_e w_e D_e`, the cross-variance arithmetic, the pre-registered verdict rule,\n  the 13 gates and 7 corrupt controls.\n- **derived**: that the two named knobs are empty (from (1) plus #12010's y-exponent measurement).\n- **not claimed**: nothing about `pi_2`, `G2` or `beta_2`; no asymptotic statement about `rho` as\n  `x -> infinity` (two rungs, and both are inside the null); no claim that the four families *exhaust*\n  the weight space (they are the four the step fixed in advance); no claim that the random-sign model\n  is the *right* null — that is a separate question, and the one reopening this return names.\n\n## 5. Limits, and the reopening condition\n\nLimits: (a) two rungs only, j = 26 and j = 30, the two published log-weighted rows; nothing between or\nbeyond them is measured, and the failure clause forbids adding rungs of the unchanged object. (b) The\nnull is the fair Rademacher model, which is the route's own unproved step (`uncertainty_md`: \"the\nrandom-sign draw is a matched null for the multiplicative mu\"); if the two-point correlation of `f`\ncontaminates it in a scale-dependent way, the band would drift — this return does not test that.\n(c) `rho_route` uses the end-cutoff `D_e` as the route defines it; the moving-cutoff variant is a\ndifferent object and is not measured here for these weights. (d) 24-37x is a finite-x gain, not a bound.\n\nReopening condition (recorded, per the step's failure clause): only a **different object** reopens this\nroute — a different modulus class, a different observed sign structure, or a recalibrated null. The\ncheapest of the three is the null: the same statistic with a **sign model matched to the observed\ntwo-point sign structure of `f`** instead of independent fair signs, with `V_w` recomputed under the\nmatched model, would either move `|T_w|` past 3 (the route reopens on the calibration axis) or confirm\nthat the random-sign band is the right one (both knobs and their calibration are then closed, and lane A\nkeeps the absolute form). That is the proposed next step, with its pre-registration.\n\n## 6.

Cancellation is available in *level* (the absolute budget is 24-37x the\nsigned sum at that weight, 3.7-4.8x at the decorrelated ones), and it is exactly the random-sign\nscale: the signed sum is inside its exact null also at that weight (T = -0.32/+0.84). So the signed\nform cannot be priced above a matched null on this evidence, and the absolute form is not wasteful\nat these rungs.\n\n**Gates (verified).** Default path reproduces the published rows: V_end bit-identical, T rel 1.7e-16\n(j=26) and 2.4e-14 (j=30); the j=30 value equals #5780's published digits exactly. y/Q/nE =\n5713/11746/4758 and 21619/49666/20132. Identity N_w = sum_e w_e D_e to 1.5e-13. #12010's independent\nj=26 probe reproduces bit-for-bit (T and rho to 5e-6 of its 5-decimal text). `check_j3.py` 13/13\nPASS, exit 0; seven named corrupt controls each exit 1 (theta=1/2, 1e-9 row tamper, family forced to\nrho=0.999, prior probe 0.9999, positive control dropped, identity 1e-3, one family forced to T=3.5).\n\n**Positive control (power).** With signs aligned to c_log the instrument reports |T_log| = 889.2 and\n3240.0 at the two rungs: the observed |T_w| <= 0.93 is a property of f, not of the instrument.\n\n**Scope.** measured: the eight values, rho_route, the controls. verified: gates, identity,\ncross-variance, verdict rule. not claimed: nothing about pi_2/G2/beta_2, nothing asymptotic, and no\nclaim that four a-priori weights exhaust the weight space. Limits: two rungs; the null is the fair\nRademacher model (the route's own unproved step); rho_route uses the route's end-cutoff D_e.\n\n**Reopening condition (per the step's failure clause).** Only a *different object* reopens route 264:\na different modulus class, a different observed sign structure, or a recalibrated null. The cheapest\nis the third, and it is the proposed next step: the same statistic with the null's signs matched to\nthe observed two-point sign structure of f, V_w recomputed under that model; |T_w| >= 3 at one rung\nwith the sign kept at the other reopens the route on the calibration axis, otherwise the\nrandom-sign band is confirmed and the weight axis stays closed at both scales.","prior_art_md":"# Prior art — job #12011 (route 264, weight axis), updated online search 2026-10-27\n\n## Search performed now (this run), and its result\n\nQueries run on 2026-10-27 from this machine: \"Bombieri-Vinogradov type theorem for\nLambda(n-2)mu(n) signed estimate versus absolute value moduli cancellation\"; \"signed\nBombieri-Vinogradov sum over moduli sign cancellation versus absolute values weighted discrepancy\naverage\"; \"Maynard 2006.07088 large moduli well-factorable weights Bombieri-Vinogradov improved\nrange\".\n\nRecorded sources found: Tao, *254A Notes 3: the large sieve and the Bombieri-Vinogradov theorem*\n(the standard BV statement, no signed/absolute comparison); Sedunova, *A logarithmic improvement in\nthe Bombieri-Vinogradov theorem*, JTNB 31 (2019) 635 (logarithmic saving in the averaged error, all\nmoduli); Maynard, *Primes in arithmetic progressions to large moduli II: well-factorable estimates*,\narXiv:2006.07088 (mean value theorems for primes in APs to moduli as large as x^(3/5-eps) when\nsummed with suitably well-factorable weights); Shao, *The Bombieri-Vinogradov theorem for\nnilsequences* (different function class); Baier, arXiv:2107.04348 (prime-power moduli, exceptional\nset only); Akbary (explicit variant).\n\n**Verdict of the search: no external work covers this contribution.** Every hit is a statement\nabout a *sum over moduli* of an averaged error for a restricted weight class or a different\narithmetic function. None compares `sum_e w_e D_e` with `sum_e w_e |D_e|` (the ratio the route is\nabout), and none decides which weight family a finite census statistic should use. The nearest\nexternal fact that bears on the route's *purpose* is Maynard's well-factorable large-modulus class:\nit is the class in which a BV-type estimate for this f could exist at x^(3/5-eps), i.e. the only\nclass where a signed estimate could be priced against a real theorem — but it says nothing about the\nsign of the statistic measured here.\n\n## What the project record contains (re-read, not repeated)\n\nRoute 264's seven returns all fix theta = 12/25 and `w_e = log(x/e)` over the odd squarefree\ne <= Q: #2854 (statistic), #2870, #4686, #4740, #4749 (exact-variance T; rows j = 16, 26..30),\n#5565 and #5780 (j = 31..34; the latter accepted `measured`).
