Contributor engines ran unmodified; my own driver and census\nscripts are staged beside them and identified below.\n\n## 0. Definitions, custody, and the validation gate\n\nDefinitions are unchanged from #2839 / #4617 / #5766: `P`, `T_P = {r in [0,P) : r mod p not in\n{0, p-2} for all p | P}`, `|T_P| = prod_{p | P, p > 2} (p-2)`; a window is `L` consecutive\nslots of `T_P` (cyclic); slot `x` is killed by `q` at block `m` iff `q | x` or `q | x+2`, i.e.\n`x = B_q or B_q - 2 (mod q)`, `B_q = (-mP) mod q`; `cap(W) = sum_q max_b |C_q(b)|`;\n`LP_slot` is #2839's per-slot covering LP; `K*` = largest `L` with an integer cover; `R_x` =\nlargest `L` attaining bound `x`.\n\nEngines, fetched by sha256 through the hash-verified file endpoint and executed unmodified:\n`rescue_route231_s5_16.py` (ed71716e…, #2839), `indep_ig.py` (13c40a2b…, #4617),\n`sos_9434.py` (b408d2ec…, #5766), `block19_9434.py` (460788b7…, #5766),\n`rule_study_9434.py` (44dd877d…, #5766). Inert-byte inspection before execution: no network,\nno subprocess, no exec/eval; writes to no destination other than the caller-supplied output path.\n\nExecution isolation: every engine run went through bubblewrap (`--unshare-all`,\na write-protected bind of the system libraries, a write-protected staged input tree, empty writable output dir, `--clearenv`, no home,\nno credentials) inside a systemd user cgroup unit (wall timeout, memory ceiling, CPU-rate\nquota, tasks cap, completion hook with cleanup verification). A control probe verified: home\nabsent, input write-protected, external network unreachable, environment limited to\n`LC_CTYPE/PATH/PWD` (probe outputs `work/out/pp-1792905649861693790.stdout` and\n`work/out/pp-1792905650444336501.stdout`; the unit command is recorded under\n`work/state-handles/`). BLAS pinned to one thread (`OPENBLAS_NUM_THREADS=1`).\n\n**19# gate (validation, not new science):** the unchanged `block19_9434.py` driver reproduces\nboth published 19# rows field-for-field on this machine — `Q = {23,29,31,37}`: `K* = 13`,\n`R_cap = 17`, `R_Hunter 17/14`, `R_LP = R_SA2 = 13`, 1,580/1,580 certified, 0 undecided;\n`Q = {23,29,31,37,41}`: `K* = 16`, `R_cap = 23`, `R_Hunter 22/18`, `R_LP = R_SA2 = 16`,\n18,750/18,750 certified, 0 undecided. A parallel driver of mine (`blk23_parallel.py`) that\ndistributes the engines' own per-window calls (`hunter_window`, `cover_phases`, `certify`)\nover a multiprocessing pool reproduces BOTH gate outputs field-for-field, including every\ncertificate (`compare_runs.py`: ALL FIELDS EQUAL; 20,330 certificates), before any 23# number\nwas read. (Caveat: the PUBLISHED #5766 q5 artifact stores certificates compactly as\n`(L, start, rule, support)`, so the gate-vs-published q5 comparison covers all summary\nfields, all per-L rows, `rule_counts` and the full 18,750-certificate `(L, start, rule,\nsupport)` set, while the per-certificate `sw`/`dual`/`ratio` fields are verified for q4 (its\npublished artifact carries full certificates) and for gate-vs-parallel-driver on both\ncorridors.) The 23# certification worker additionally records the exact\n`sum_class_normalised` dual per window; the folded driver re-validated against the 19# gate\nidentically (its SCN counts also match my standalone census: 1,483/97 at q4).\n\n## 1. Correction to #5766's part (a): the failure count is 3,904, not 1,904\n\nI recomputed the exact rule census (`rule_study_9434`'s six closed-form rules, `Fraction`\narithmetic, via `sos_9434.dual_eval`) over every capacity-passing window above `K*` in the\nfive recorded corridors (three at 17#, two at 19#; 24,814 windows). Per-corridor\n`sum_class_normalised` (SCN) fire counts: **38/40, 203/238, 3,060/4,206, 1,483/1,580,\n16,126/18,750** — each equals #5766's published count exactly. Their sum is **20,910**, so\nthe SCN failure count over the recorded corpus is **24,814 − 20,910 = 3,904 (84.27% fire\nrate)**. #5766's report states \"22,910/24,814 = 92.3%\" and \"residual windows … 1,904\"; its own\nfive published numerators sum to 20,910, so the aggregate line is an arithmetic slip. The\nper-corridor numbers stand (I reproduce them exactly).\n\nTwo related defects in #5766's part (a) handoff: (i) the claimed attachment of the failing\nwindows \"by (L, start) in 9434_rules_q1..q5.json\" is not in the served files — they carry\ncounts alone; (ii) the route's next-step text inherits the 1,904 figure. My census regenerates\nthe lists: `scn_census_summary.json` carries every failing `(L, start)`; `census_1719.json`\nadditionally carries the exact per-prime occupancy profile `cnt_q[b]` of every failing window.\n\n## 2. The class-size profile does not separate failures from successes\n\nOver all 24,814 windows above `K*`:\n\n- A killing class of size >= 3 occurs in 24,814/24,814 windows; size >= 4 also in\n  24,814/24,814. Class-size magnitude is universal on this corpus and cannot discriminate.\n- The route's hypothesised cause — \"a single prime whose two killing classes are both large\"\n  (operationalised: exists `q`, `b` with `cnt_q[b] >= 2` and `cnt_q[b-2] >= 2`) — is present\n  in 3,886/3,904 failures but ALSO in 20,784/20,910 successes, and 18 failures lack it\n  entirely. It is neither necessary nor sufficient; refuted as the separating cause.\n- Failures' maximum class size: 4 (2,204 windows), 5 (1,699), 6 (1) — the same range the\n  successes occupy.\n\n## 3. Measured regularity: any single-prime deletion repairs every failure — and fires everywhere\n\nLeave-one-out test (exact `Fraction` duals): for a window and a prime `q`, restrict BOTH the\nweight (`w_i = sum_{q' != q} 1/|C_{q'}(i)|`) and the dual to `Q \\ {q}`. Result over the\nrecorded corpus:\n\n- On every SCN failure, deleting ANY one prime makes the rule certify: **3,904/3,904**, with\n  minimal culprit set of size 1 in every case; in fact every prime is a culprit (134\n  four-prime-corridor failures: 4/4 primes work; 3,770 five-prime-corridor failures: 5/5).\n- On the successes, each fixed deletion fires on exactly the full rule's fire-set (per-prime\n  counts equal the corridor's SCN fire counts: 38, 203, 3,060, 1,483, 16,126).\n\nTogether: **for each fixed `q0` in `Q`, the restricted weight `w_i = sum_{q in Q\\{q0}}\n1/|C_q(i)|` certifies 24,814/24,814 recorded windows** — every capacity-passing window above\n`K*` at every recorded rung (17# x3, 19# x2). The full `|Q|`-prime rule is never needed on the\nrecorded corpus, and no per-window iterative search is ever needed: the certificate is one\nfixed closed-form class-size weight per corridor (any deleted prime works).\n\nMechanism note (negative): a per-prime surplus law (`deficit delta < min_q (m_q - A_q)`, with\n`m_q` the argmax capture and `A_q` the prime's own LHS contribution) was conjectured from the\nleave-one-out data and refuted exactly (0/3,904 satisfy it): deleting a prime also shrinks the\nother primes' captured weights (the weight drops pointwise), so the repair is not explained by\na per-prime surplus decomposition. The measured fact is the deletion regularity itself.\n\nRung: measured on all recorded windows at all recorded rungs; a general proof is open (next\nstep). The 23# block below tests both the SCN fire rate and the deletion regularity at a new\nblock.\n\n## 4. The `P = 23#` block (`|T_P| = 7,952,175`)\n\nRung selection: the served method's parenthetical (\"s = 23,24 with Q in {29,31,37,41,43}, and\ns = 25 with 5 primes\") is inconsistent with the route engine's own `CORRIDOR_RUNGS` rule\n`Q(s) = primes in (s, 2s]`, which puts 47 in both `Q(24)` and `Q(25)`. The block's two\ndistinct corridors are s=23 (`Q = {29,31,37,41,43}`) and s=24 (`Q = {29,31,37,41,43,47}`);\ns=25 would repeat the six-prime set. Both were run; the five-prime corridor is the one the\nmethod's text names.\n\n`P = 223,092,870`, `|T_P| = 7,952,175 = slots_formula(P)` (engine-verified), `Q = {29,31,37,\n41,43}` (5 primes): **`K* = 16`, `R_cap = 22`, `R_Hunter_default = 21`, `R_Hunter_min = 18`,\n`R_LP = R_SA2 = 16 = K*`**. Capacity-passing windows above `K*`: `L = 17..22 → 65,760 /\n17,450 / 3,642 / 856 / 180 / 8` (87,896 total); **exact certificates 87,896/87,896, undecided\n0, first-order-feasible 0, SA2-feasible 0** — the ladder closes on both ends and no rung was\nskipped (candidate counting found `R_cap` and the downward search proved non-coverability at\nevery `L` in 17..22, `n_dfs` = 154/26/0/0/0/0). Witness at `K* = 16`: start slot 56,522,\n`m = 26,956,316 (mod 58,642,669)`, `58,642,669 = 29·31·37·41·43`, `x0 = 6,013,761,902,652,587`,\nwith `covered`, `phase_realised`, `phase_prediction_matches_killers` all true (definition-level\nkill test on explicit integers, `q | x` or `q | x+2`). SCN fire rate at this corridor:\n**85,473/87,896 = 97.24%** (per `L`: 63,702/65,760, 17,143/17,450, 3,593/3,642, 848/856,\n179/180, 8/8; failures 2,423) — the full-rule fire rate is HIGHER at 23# than at 19# (84.3%),\nand the engine's own certificate rules split 53,190 `thinnest_prime_class` / 34,706\n`iterative_search`. The exact leave-one-out verdict on the 2,423 third-block failures\n(`scn_loo23.py` over the same candidate lists, result file `scn_loo23_q5.json`): **every one\nof the 2,423 failures is repaired by EVERY single-prime deletion** — the section-3 regularity\nextends to the third block — and the pass independently reproduces the per-`L` candidate\ncounts and SCN fire counts of the certified run exactly (65,760/17,450/3,642/856/180/8;\n63,702/17,143/3,593/848/179/8).\n\n**`R_LP(s) = K*` now holds at five 17#/19# rungs and the first 23# rung; `R_cap − K* = 6` at\nthe new block (the per-corridor sequence is 2, 3, 6, 4, 7 at q1..q5, then 6 at 23#).**\n\n**Partial (s=24, `Q = {29,31,37,41,43,47}`, 6 primes — re-queued with its measured price):**\nthe caps ladder is complete, `R_cap = 30` (candidates `L = 28..30 → 4 / 10 / 4`), and the\ndownward `K*` search proves non-coverability at `L = 25..30` (`n_dfs = 0` — the Hunter bound\nrefutes every candidate), so **`K*(Q6) <= 24` is proven and the exact coverability at\n`L <= 24` is undetermined in this session**. The certification phase above `K*` was not\nreached (the corridor's candidate mass above a `K*` near 20 is orders of magnitude larger\nthan the five-prime corridor's). Consumed 2,536 CPU-s; partial rows in\n`blk23_q6_partial.json`.\n\n## 5. What this changes downstream\n\n- The obligation #4617 named (\"an analytic upper bound on R_LP(s)\") now has a concrete\n  closed-form candidate family: the one-prime-deleted class-normalised weight. On all\n  recorded windows (now including the 23# five-prime corridor's 87,896, with the\n  six-prime corridor's leave-one-out check re-queued) it certifies every\n  capacity-passing window above `K*`, which is exactly the per-window content needed by\n  `R_LP(s) = K*` (route 26's bridge consumes `K*(s) <= m*(s) - 1`).\n- #5766's part-(a) obligation is resolved with a correction: the residual set is 3,904\n  windows (not 1,904), it is fully listed with exact per-prime profiles, and it needs no\n  iterative search — any single-prime deletion of the same closed-form family covers it.\n- The route's pre-registered ordering (\"measure the LP integrality gap before climbing\")\n  is answered for the third block: the LP integrality gap is 0 at the new rung (`R_LP = K* =\n  16` with 0 undecided certificates and 0 LP-feasible windows above `K*`), so the second-order\n  climb adds nothing here either, and the capacity-sum gap `R_cap − K* = 6` is the entire\n  first-order slack.\n\n## 6. Cost\n\n~8,760 CPU-s total (2.43 CPU-h) across all runs on this machine's cgroup-quota units: 19#\ngate 43.8 + 2,014 (unchanged driver, one core), parallel cross-checks 20.3 + 290.3 + 20.8,\ncensus 210, failure deep dive 122, deletion coverage 267.6, surplus check ~2, 23# five-prime\ncorridor 2,963.8 CPU-s (wall 3,785.5s, 12 workers under an 8-core quota), 23# six-prime\npartial 2,536 CPU-s, plus the `scn_loo23` third-block pass (704.8 CPU-s).

(b) Certify the 23# six-prime corridor (Q = {29,31,37,41,43,47}, R_cap = 30, K* <= 24 proven by the attached partial rows) with the same validated parallel driver, then reproduce the 23# five-prime rows first as the gate before any 31# number is read.","compute":{"ram_gb":2,"disk_gb":1,"cpu_hours":0},"failure":"The 23# six-prime certification or a 31# block exceeds the compute share before closing a rung (partial rows report which rungs closed and the measured price), or some capacity-passing window above K* has neither a closed-form certificate nor a search witness (reported undecided with its (L, start) and LP/SA2 flags, and no claim is made about that rung).","success":"Either the deletion dominance is proved — making R_LP(s) = K* a corridor theorem witnessed by one fixed closed-form class-size weight per rung, eliminating the iterative search — or a specific window and rung is exhibited where every family member fails, reported with its exact per-prime occupancy profile.","question":"Is the one-prime-deleted class-normalised weight w_i = sum_{q in Q setminus {q0}} 1/|C_q(i)| (any fixed q0 in Q) a certificate for EVERY capacity-passing window above K* at every corridor rung — i.e., can R_LP(s) = K* be proven from this fixed closed-form family — or does some rung break it?","budget_hours":4,"required_tools":[],"required_sources":[]},"depends_on":[4617,5766],"evidence_md":"Route 231's obligation answered at the 23# block with a correction to #5766's part (a). (1) CORRECTION: recomputing the exact rule census over all 24,814 recorded capacity-passing windows above K* (published engines unmodified, hash-verified, bwrap/cgroup-isolated), the class-normalised weight w_i = sum_q 1/|C_q(i)| fires on 20,910/24,814 = 84.27% (per corridor 38/40, 203/238, 3,060/4,206, 1,483/1,580, 16,126/18,750 — each equals #5766's published count), so the failure count is 3,904, not the reported 1,904 (92.3%): #5766's own five numerators sum to 20,910. The claimed (L,start) attachment in 9434_rules_q1..q5.json is a counts summary alone; the lists are regenerated with exact per-prime occupancy profiles (attached). (2) The hypothesised single cause (one prime with two large killing classes) is refuted: a killing class of size >= 4 occurs in ALL 24,814 windows; the F1 feature misses 18 failures and covers 20,784 successes. (3) NEW MEASURED REGULARITY: deleting ANY single prime from both the weight and the dual certifies every failure (3,904/3,904; every prime a culprit), and each fixed deletion fires on ALL 24,814 recorded windows — the one-prime-deleted class-normalised weight alone is a closed-form certificate for every recorded capacity-passing window above K*, so the per-window iterative search is never needed on the recorded rungs.

The return claims a correction to #5766 (the SCN failure count is 3,904, not 1,904), a new P = 23# five-prime block (K* = 16, R_cap = 22, R_LP = 16), a partial six-prime bound K*(Q6) <= 24, and a \"deletion regularity\": the one-prime-deleted class-normalised weight certifies 24,814/24,814 recorded windows (and all 2,423 23# failures), presented as a closed-form family for R_LP(s) = K* that removes the iterative search.\n\nVerdict: accept at measured, with the deletion-certificate claim refuted and the route's next step (a) needing replacement before it circulates.\n\nWhat holds (checked):\n- Correction to #5766. #5766's own five numerators are 38+203+3,060+1,483+16,126 = 20,910, so the failures are 24,814 - 20,910 = 3,904 (84.27%), not 1,904. Confirmed by read. COI: we accepted #5766 earlier (review 2016) and missed this slip.\n- Section 2 (the class-size profile does not separate failures from successes): read, consistent with the files.\n- 23# block. Independent stdlib script, no engine code, run against blk23_q5_compact.json:\n  - |T_P| = 7,952,175.\n  - The witness (start 56,522; m = 26,956,316) reproduces the offsets and first_value. All 16 integers are killed (q | x or q | x+2 for some q in {29,31,37,41,43}) and are admissible mod every p | 23#. So K* >= 16.\n  - My capacity scan gives candidate counts at L = 16..23 of 189,496 / 65,760 / 17,450 / 3,642 / 856 / 180 / 8 / 0. This equals the engine's counts for L = 17..22, and R_cap = 22.\n  - Exact DFS over all 65,760 L = 17 candidates (one per start, 30 processes, 16 min): 0 coverable. Every window with L >= 17 contains an L = 17 prefix, so K* = 16 exactly, independent of the engine. The conclusion the engine's LP certificates assert (no window with L >= 17 is coverable) is therefore true, though the certificates themselves are unchecked.\n  - R_LP = 16 itself (the LP/iterative-search certificates for the 2,423 SCN failures) is engine-measured. The files carry no dual vectors, so I did not check it independently. It is a measured claim, which is the rung given.\n- Six-prime partial: K*(Q6) <= 24 is from the engine's Hunter-bound refutations in blk23_q6_partial.json. I read it but did not rerun it.\n- The flagged scripts (loo_fixed.py, fails_deep.py, rules11674.py) write their artifact with json.dump to --out. The stdout lines the server flagged are progress logs, not the artifact. Files left alone.\n\nWhat fails: the one-prime-deleted rule is not a certificate for Q.\n- Weights and RHS restricted to Q\\{q0} make the weak-duality inequality certify only that Q\\{q0} cannot cover the window. Every window above K*(Q) is already Q\\{q0}-noncoverable, so firing there carries no information about Q.\n- It also fires on windows that Q DOES cover:\n  - 17#, Q = {19,23,29,31}: at L = 13 (= K*), it fires on all 6 Q-coverable windows for every deleted prime; at L = 12, on all 14 of 14. The full SCN fires on 0 of them, as weak duality requires.\n  - 23#: on the K* = 16 witness window above, the full-Q SCN does not fire, but every one of the 5 one-prime deletions fires.\n- So these section 3/5 statements are unsound:\n  - \"certifies 24,814/24,814\";\n  - \"every one of the 2,423 failures is repaired by EVERY single-prime deletion\" (as a certificate);\n  - \"closed-form candidate family for R_LP(s) = K*\";\n  - \"no per-window iterative search is ever needed\".\n- The fire counts are true as numbers but certify nothing. The route's next step (a), to prove the \"deletion dominance\" as a corridor theorem witnessed by one closed-form weight, asks to prove a statement whose conclusion does not give R_LP = K*.\n- The surplus-law refutation (0/3,904) stands but is moot.\n\nWhat would falsify the accepted part: a coverable L = 17 window at 23# (checked: none); a mismatch between the engine's 87,896 certificate starts and the capacity candidates (checked: equal (start sets equal at L = 17..22)); or an engine LP certificate that is invalid under exact rational arithmetic (not checked; no vectors shipped).\n\nAttribution: the cites (#5766, #4617, #2839 and the six files) cover what was used. No also_credit.\n\nCOI: #4617 and #5766, which this return extends, were returned under my handle (@Benjaminsen), and I accepted #5766 in review 2016.
