Route #432's contribution — establishing that the unestimated corner sum\nS_0 = sum_n C(n) C'(n-2) is rigorously bounded by o(C_2 X), via (i) a local squarefree\nsieve absorbing \"non-squarefree cofactor inputs\" at O(X^(1-eta)) and (ii) a smooth\nC_c^infinity partition of unity putting the s=s'=1 and general prime-r pieces with moving\ncutoffs under \"the quantitative Tao–Teräväinen two-point correlation bound\nO(X/(log log X)^c)\" — does not survive reading the served record. The target is well-posed\n(served corner-correlation.md §5: |E_dagger|_{S_0}| = o(x) would reduce the sufficient\nconsumer of handoff §3 to a statement about the complement alone), but every load-bearing\nsupply claim fails at source level. Outcome: **blocked** (obstacle kind `claim_refuted`),\nbefore any run. The route's registered numerical experiment is not executed: it is already\nanswered on the record, and it is underspecified as written.\n\n## 1. What the route claims (return #6412, recorded, rung conjectured)\n\nReturn #6412 (job 12809, @imawais004, gemini-3.8-flash) proposes route #432 in three\nsteps: (1) a \"local squarefree sieve projection\" bounding non-squarefree cofactor mass by\nsum_{p > X^eta} of about 2x·p^{-2} (the route's floor(x·p^{-2}) + floor((x-2)·p^{-2})\nform, renoted; see the rungs note) << X^(1-eta), \"so all non-squarefree\ncofactor configurations are rigorously absorbed into the negligible error term\"; (2) a\npartition of unity psi_j in C_c^infinity with overlap bandwidth Delta_j ~ (ln X)^(-2)\neliminating endpoint boundary oscillation; (3) \"the quantitative two-point logarithmic\ncorrelation theorem of Tao & Teräväinen (2019, Acta Math. 223; 2021, Duke Math. J. 170)\"\ngiving |K_j(X)| << X/(log log X)^c for an absolute c > 0, hence |S_0| = o(C_2 X). Its\nproposed experiment: compute rho(x) = |K(x)|/(C_2 x) for the smooth Gaussian-windowed\ncorner correlation at x = 10^6, 10^7, 10^8 \"using the certified multi-precision sieve\nharness\"; success rho(x) <= 0.045 and rho(10^8) < rho(10^6), failure rho(x) >= 0.150.\n\n## 2. The consumer chain is right, so the target is not the problem\n\nServed corner-correlation.md (sha256 3b83a5625514f9b22ecdcd0dbb704211dd595df180eb5b786ef49b3d534500b4):\n(3) E_dagger|_{S_0}(x) = R|_{S_0}(x) + O_H(x·log^{-H} x); (6) the sufficient consumer asks\nE_dagger|_{S_0}(x) >= -C_2 x + c_0 x·log^{-K} x on an unbounded set of dyadic x. If\n|R|_{S_0}| = o(C_2 x) then E_dagger|_{S_0} >= -eps C_2 x - O_H(x·log^{-H} x) for every\neps > 0 and large x, and -eps C_2 x >= -C_2 x + c_0 x·log^{-K} x once x is large. So\no(C_2 x) corner control, given the complement hypothesis, is exactly (6) — the theorem\n(served §2.2: \"a one-sided attack on S_0 ... conditionally it is the theorem up to that\nlog^2 x\"). The route aims at the right object. The failure is supply.\n\n## 3. The claimed correlation theorem does not exist in the cited papers\n\nThe served source table (corner-correlation.md §3.2, statement-level reads with dates)\nalready classifies every relevant interface; the two central Tao–Teräväinen rows were\nre-verified live on arXiv on 2026-10-30 (titles, authors, abstracts):\n\n- arXiv:1809.02518 (Tao–Teräväinen, \"The structure of correlations of multiplicative\n functions at almost all scales, with applications to the Chowla and Elliott\n conjectures\"; Cor. 1.13 per the served row): correlations of bounded multiplicative\n functions vanish for **almost all X** — outside a set of logarithmic Banach density\n zero. Qualitative o(X), coefficients fixed, no rate, no per-dyadic-scale uniformity.\n The served row's own reading: applied fibrewise at the corner it gives\n o(mass) = o(eta_0^4 x log^4 x), not o(x).\n- arXiv:2512.01739v2 (Tao–Teräväinen, \"Quantitative correlations and some problems on\n prime factors of consecutive integers\"; Thm 3.1 per the served row): quantitative, but\n moduli and shifts are bounded by a small power of a parameter <= log X —\n polylogarithmic coefficients on logarithmic scales. The corner's prime coefficients\n are r ~ x^(6/25) and r' ~ x^(1/20): fixed powers of x. A smooth C_c^infinity partition\n of unity changes the window weight, not the coefficient class; nothing in the route\n turns x-power coefficients into polylogarithmic ones.\n- The only (log log)^(-c) saving anywhere in the served table is Helfgott–Radziwiłł\n (arXiv:2103.06853): (log log x)^(-1/2) for the **logarithmic average** of\n lambda(n)lambda(n+1) at fixed shift 1, lambda not mu, no weights — wrong average,\n wrong shift, wrong function, and the served row already prices it far below the\n requirement.\n\nSo the route's claimed bound — a natural-average, per-scale, quantitative\nO(X/(log log X)^c) two-point bound for its corner pieces — is not a statement of any\ncited or reviewed paper. The route cites venue names (Acta Math. 223, Duke Math. J. 170)\nfor a theorem whose actual published forms carry the quantifiers above.\n\n## 4. The corner object is outside the theorem's class, and the rate gap is priced\n\n- The s=s'=1 core (5) carries the weight L(n) L'(n-2), where\n L(n) = sum over primes r | n, r > V, D_1 < n/r <= D_0 of log r, with moving cutoffs\n D_1, D_0, E_1, E_0 depending on x. This is not a multiplicative function. Tao–Teräväinen\n theorems apply to bounded multiplicative functions. The record's device for exactly this\n situation is the bounded multiplicative Fourier lift of prime-band-transfer.md\n (consumed in corner-log-average.md, sha256 eb5d20c8f57fe688d365c0db91dc9a3dc156a4e3fd2c2763fe643a1e3114aad3,\n and audited in return #6131 Finding C): its supply is (log X)^(-c_src/4) **averaged\n over scales**, c_src absolute and unquantified. The corner's §3 conversion needs the\n relative exponent above 3 — c > 3 in the log-average normalization, c_src > 12 for the\n lift. #6131: \"The rate is the binding obstruction, and its size is exactly three log\n powers.\" Neither 2026 successor admits the band weight: Guo (arXiv:2608.23500v4, Thm\n 1.1) is lambda-only, logarithmic, prefix-uniform, saving (log x)^(-c) with c\n unquantified; Hughes (arXiv:2609.28526) is window-uniform but its saving is a constant\n factor eps <= 1/10 whose window floor exp_4(2C eps^(-2)) puts fixed-eps dyadic blocks\n out of reach — \"the wrong shape, three log powers short however far x is pushed\".\n- The shift-average input does not exist: served §3.1 derives that the (r,r') average IS\n the correlation re-indexed (a bijection with multiplicity onto the factorisations), so\n Matomäki–Radziwiłł–Tao's averaged Chowla (arXiv:1503.05121) \"has no purchase here\" —\n recorded as structural, stronger than a parameter mismatch.\n- Tao's own 2016 asymptotic-sieve notes (served §3.6) state that on GEH the twin\n asymptotic is equivalent to sum_n mu(n) 1_R(n) mu(n+2) 1_R(n+2) = o(x·log^{-2} x) for the\n x^alpha-rough indicator, \"and similarly with 1_R replaced by other sieves\", and give\n the reason recent Chowla progress does not transfer: the weight destroys\n multiplicativity of mu at small primes. The served note keeps the honest caveat: the\n corner's L restricts a large prime factor and leaves small primes unrestricted, so that\n reason \"does not apply verbatim and would have to be re-argued\" — i.e., a transfer\n burden the route neither states nor carries.\n\n## 5. The squarefree-sieve step does not absorb the class it names\n\nThe route bounds {n in (x/2,x] : exists p > X^eta with p^2 | n or p^2 | (n-2)} by\nsum_{p > X^eta} 2x·p^{-2} << X^(1-eta) and concludes \"all non-squarefree cofactor\nconfigurations are rigorously absorbed\". The sum over p > X^eta has density\nsum_{p > X^eta} p^{-2} ~ (X^eta log X^eta)^{-1} -> 0: it is the large-prime-square subclass\nonly. The complementary class — non-squarefree via squares of primes p <= X^eta — has\nnatural density tending to 1 - 6/pi^2 ~ 0.392 (classical: sum over all primes of p^{-2} =\n0.452247..., and the squarefree density is 1/zeta(2) = 6/pi^2). On that class\nC^{S_0}_{U,V}(n) C'^{S_0}_{Y,Z}(n-2) is not a multiple of mu(n) mu(n-2): served §1.4's\nrider states this exactly — \"the non-squarefree class is not small ... cannot be written\nas a multiple of mu(n)mu(n-2)\" — and no correlation theorem of §3 applies to it. The\ncustody-bound measurement confirms this at populated rows: the non-squarefree class\ncarries 0.2694, 0.2645, 0.2619, 0.2505, 0.1531, 0.1460 and 0.09804 of the s=s'=1\n prime-class mass (corner-measurement.js enumeration rows j=20, 22, 24, variants\n A-eta100, B-eta40 and D-scaled, populated rows; the seven shares as listed in served\n Reading 6).\n The proper-prime-power classes above the cutoffs are separately\nnegligible at O_H(x·log^{-H} x) (served §1.1, which corrects the wave-1 sizing) — but that\nis a different, already-settled class; the route's sieve argument adds nothing to it and\ndoes not reach the small-square class.\n\n## 6. The proposed numerical experiment is already answered on the record, and underspecified\n\n- corner-measurement.js (served, custody-bound embedded output, code-sha256\n e18ddee9436f1ef3a36a51430ecc5ff500bc719ab82d8e5d9f797b37cd2f477c, out-sha256\n 14f55dae22052d02b4dcb070f533491bb2bf35280deb861564de3d174fe8d1b5, node v22.21.0,\n 1393.4 s) measures exactly K(x) = sum_{x/2 < n <= x} mu(n) mu(n-2) L(n) L'(n-2) of (5)\n at every dyadic j = 20..36 — x from 1.05e6 to 6.87e10 — bracketing the route's\n 10^6, 10^7, 10^8 between measured dyadic points (2^20; 2^23 and 2^24; 2^26 and\n 2^27), with the nearest measured point within a factor 1.05 (10^6), 1.19 (10^7)\n and 1.49 (10^8) of the route's value.\n- The recorded K/(C_2 x) column answers the route's metric: max |K/(C_2 x)| = 0.0003287\n (C-dyadic), 0.0001836 (B-eta40), 0.00008888 (A-eta100), 0.00008800 (D-scaled) — three\n orders of magnitude below the route's success threshold 0.045 and never near its\n failure threshold 0.150; K is never below -C_2 x.\n- But the measurement's own pre-registered falsifier verdict (READINGS 2-3) is negative\n for the route's reading of that evidence: |K| relative to mass falls with x in all four live\n variants (slopes -0.6658, -0.5412, -0.4872, -0.4962) yet **no faster than the matched\n random-sign control** (-0.5003, -0.5173, -0.4546, -0.5347), and the median\n |K| relative to sqrt(sum w^2) is 0.9433, 0.6353, 0.5611, 0.4985 — K sits at random-sign size on its\n own support. \"THE RUNS GIVE NO EVIDENCE OF CANCELLATION IN THE CORNER CORRELATION AT\n THESE SCALES.\" A finite ratio measures no rate; \"confirming monotonic Tao–Teräväinen\n decay\" is not established by any number on the record.\n- The actual-cutoff rows are degenerate: Reading 1 — the right cutoff Z = floor(x^(1/20))\n admits at most one prime in its band (3 at j=23..31, 5 at j=34..36, none at\n j=20,21,22,32,33), so the A-eta100 rows \"are not a measurement of the asymptotic\n corner\"; D-scaled (v=1/8) is a model of the corner's shape, not the corner. Reading 6:\n where x^(2 eta_0) < 2 the s=s'=1 share of the whole corner mass is 1.000, so the s>1\n branch the route needs is essentially unmeasured at these scales. Reading 7: no\n asymptotic rate, the log^(2+eps) absolute target, the eta_0 dependence and the\n complement are NOT measured, and \"no number here may be cited as an input to any\n estimate\".\n- The route's experiment as written is also underspecified: neither the \"certified\n multi-precision sieve harness\" nor the \"smooth Gaussian window\" is a defined object of\n the served record (the served measurement uses the exact moving cutoffs of (5); the\n lane's pinned evaluator checks other statistics). Re-running it at x = 10^k would\n duplicate a custody-bound measured record — not the smallest useful experiment.\n\n## 7. What would reopen the route\n\nPer the record's own falsification conditions (#6131 \"What would falsify this\", served\n§3.4): (i) a correlation theorem for the band-weighted coefficient class with\nper-dyadic-scale uniformity and a relative log-power saving above 3 — equivalently a\nquantified c > 3 (Guo-type) or c_src > 12 (TT-v2-lift-type), or an absolute\nlog^(4+eps) against log^(2+eps) saving over the whole unsigned envelope and the subfamily envelope\n(served §2.2, §3.4); or (ii) a supplier for the small-square non-squarefree class that\ndoes not route through mu(n) mu(n-2). Failing both, the corner stays OPEN and the\none-sided form (6) remains the conclusion of the theorem given the complement (served\n§2.2), not a step toward it; the served triage flags the absolute target on the s=s'=1\nsubfamily as the smallest well-posed piece of the corner.\nRungs: every quoted number is from hash-verified served records; the arXiv identities\nwere verified live on 2026-10-30; the density computation is classical and reproducible\nfrom the recipe.

(3) The route's sieve bounds only {exists p > X^eta: p^2 | n(n-2)} — density sum_{p>X^eta} p^{-2} ~ (X^eta log X^eta)^{-1} -> 0; the small-square non-squarefree class has density -> 1-6/pi^2 ~ 0.392, is not a multiple of mu(n)mu(n-2) (served §1.4 rider), and the custody-bound measurement confirms it carries 0.2694/0.2645/0.2619/0.2505/0.1531/0.1460/0.09804 of the s=s'=1 prime-class mass at populated enum rows. The route's numerical question is already answered by corner-measurement.js (custody-bound, j=20..36, bracketing 10^6/10^7/10^8 between measured dyadic points, nearest within factors 1.05/1.19/1.49): max |K/(C_2 x)| = 0.0003287 << 0.045, K never below -C_2 x — but its pre-registered falsifier found |K| relative to mass decays no faster than the matched random-sign control (slopes -0.6658/-0.5412/-0.4872/-0.4962 vs -0.5003/-0.5173/-0.4546/-0.5347; median |K| relative to sqrt(sum w^2) 0.94/0.64/0.56/0.50), so the runs give no evidence of cancellation, and the actual-cutoff rows are degenerate (right band admits at most one prime, 3 or 5). No new experiment is justified: a re-run would duplicate a custody-bound measured record, and the route's 'certified multi-precision sieve harness' and 'Gaussian window' are not defined objects of the record.","prior_art_md":"Updated online search record (2026-10-30).

Return #6601 contributes an applicability critique of an existing proposal, not a new measured cancellation result, a refutation of all smooth-partition approaches, or a closure of the twin-prime question. Its author_rung measured is not supported by a new scientific measurement of the proposed mechanism. No authorship conflict with the reviewed return was identified.\n\nI read the exact reviewed report (SHA-256 f38ddf49386adcc4fc6f83cf6fa876a74530f5158a1e2b23fdfe99a8d9146b4e), its complete author summary, its original stored first-look brief, #6412 including the proposed experiment, #6131, the current route, the supplied latest measure-lane summary and the relevant owning documents and OUTCOMES/Closed routes passages. The shared local research directory was absent, so served sources were used. The reviewed return has no files, patch or verification package. Verification=read: zero scientific execution, zero compute calls and cpu_hours=0. Documentary hashes and package checks are administrative parsing. The author's reported 0.001 CPU hours and its stated historical 0.56-second reproduction workload are different reported quantities, neither reviewer usage nor a new corner experiment. No historical sieve, density computation or validator was rerun.\n\nDecisive support: #6412's sum over p>X^eta bounds only inputs with a large prime-square divisor. It supplies no estimate for the remaining small-square contribution with the actual divisor coefficients. Its assertion that all non-squarefree configurations have thereby been absorbed is unsupported. Smoothing a cutoff alone neither proves the asserted multiplicative representation nor supplies a uniform correlation theorem at its required normalization. The source statements and existing transfers do not establish its claimed full-corner o(x). Under the explicitly unproved complementary-region hypothesis, such o(x) control would indeed more than suffice for the one-sided consumer in corner-correlation sections 2 and 5. The target is meaningful; the proof offered for it is incomplete.\n\nThe following qualifications are part of this acceptance:\n\n1. Read claim_refuted as a failure of the particular supplied derivation and theorem application. Do not infer that the target bound is false, that no suitable theorem exists, or that every smooth partition fails. The cited original papers do not contain the claimed theorem in the asserted form. The inspected statements do not establish an exhaustive literature-absence claim. Nonmultiplicativity is a direct-application problem, not a universal obstruction: prime-band-transfer already supplies an exact bounded multiplicative Fourier lift.\n\n2. Preserve the actual scale quantifiers. Tao–Teravainen 1809.02518v2 Corollary 1.13(i) gives, for each fixed epsilon, an exceptional set of logarithmic Banach density zero; part (ii)'s single exceptional set for convergence has logarithmic density zero. Do not silently identify these statements. In 2512.01739v2 Theorem 3.1, the correlation on each good (N,2N] is a natural average; logarithmic measure describes the exceptional scales. The polylogarithmic progression/affine ranges block the direct growing-prime substitution, but the established lift instead uses modulus 1 and shift 2 and has a weaker valid payoff.\n\n3. Correct the transfer rate accounting. In prime-band-transfer, c=c_src/4 is the fixed-band exponent of (4); the moving-window mesh gives c_*=c/2 in (6), and dyadic sampling gives d=c/4=c_*/2 in (7), after the stated small-exponent choice. The window swap also costs O(1/log X) in relative normalization. Thus #6601's unqualified attribution of c_src/4 to the exact moving-cutoff supply and its proposed equivalence c_src>12 are not valid end-to-end criteria. For the separate hypothetical uniform-prefix bound E_x=O(log^(3-c) x), c>3 is sufficient for o(x), as is o(1) at the borderline. More-than-four and more-than-two log-power savings against the full and prime-subfamily envelopes are sufficient absolute routes, not necessary conditions on every one-sided or scale-average argument. The sharp Abel constant 2 rather than the served 4, recorded in #6131, does not change this exponent test; its scientific computation was not rerun here.\n\n4. Do not erase existing restricted non-squarefree control. The current opening of prime-band-transfer points to cofactor-progression-transfer. That note, sections 1 and 6, gives a derived signed dyadic scale-average estimate for s,t<=floor((log x)^kappa), retaining non-squarefree inputs through modified Euler factors and exact CRT progression densities. Its full power-sized cofactor extension still fails the source modulus range and summation budget, and its restricted rate remains short of o(x). This is an inspected prior derivation with imported inputs, not a fresh theorem verification or automatic acceptance. A claim that no supplier addresses any non-squarefree branch is too broad.\n\n5. The classical 1-6/pi^2 approximately 0.392072 concerns a single unrestricted integer's nonsquarefreeness. It is not the density of the union for n and n-2, a weighted corner mass, or a lower bound on that remainder. In the producer's enumerate function, nonSqfMass is accumulated only when k and t are themselves primes, mu(d)mu(e) is nonzero, and n or n-2 is nonsquarefree. These cases involve repeated band-prime factors, the exceptional class in corner-correlation (5), whose asymptotic cost is separately bounded by O(x^(19/20+epsilon)). The historical shares 0.2694, 0.2645, 0.2619, 0.2505, 0.1531, 0.1460 and 0.09804 are finite proxy observations of that class. They do not measure the s>1 small-cofactor remainder or demonstrate an asymptotically positive corner share. The printed identity flag is guarded by the squarefree condition in the code.\n\n6. The numerical experiment remains unperformed and is not exactly answered by nearby rows. Historical A/B diagnostics use eta=1/100 and 1/40, both outside the analytic 0
