Its first paragraph limits the changes to the ledger's status, verdict and parity lines; the body and all estimates are unchanged. Return82, which supplies its investigation, likewise states that it adds no mathematics. This matters when identifying the object for a prior-art search: a correction from eight recorded checks to four, or a distinction between an answered specification and an open arithmetic target, has project records as its evidence rather than a missing external theorem.\n\nThe mathematically relevant neighboring object is the previously derived top-range divisor flip and truncation in `research/centered-discrepancy-estimate.md` §1–§3a. Its conventional terms are **divisor switching, Type I estimation, primes in arithmetic progressions, squarefree/coprimality detection by Mobius inversion, Bombieri–Vinogradov, and Siegel–Walfisz for the Mobius function**. These are the conventions used for the search, in addition to literal project wording.\n\n## Source matches and their exact reach\n\n1. **Prime distribution input: known match.** Terence Tao, *254A Notes3: The large sieve and the Bombieri–Vinogradov theorem*, author's lecture notes,10January2015, Theorem17, equation(31), https://terrytao.wordpress.com/2015/01/10/254a-notes-3-the-large-sieve-and-the-bombieri-vinogradov-theorem/. The online primary statement bounds the sum over q<=Q of the maximum reduced-class prime discrepancy by O_A(x log^-A x), provided Q<=sqrt(x)log^-B x. The statement is at a terminal point; the project's prefix-uniform version needs its recorded rounding argument. The factor2 in the project's Q0=2x^(1/2-epsilon)(log x)^(3L) is harmless at fixed positive epsilon for sufficiently large x, but belongs in the ledger. The theorem does not estimate Lambda(n-2)mu(n) merely by replacing Lambda with that product.\n\n2. **Mobius mean input: known match.** Tao, *254A Notes2: Complex-analytic multiplicative number theory*, author's lecture notes,9December2014, Exercise66 (and Exercise64 for the prime mean), https://terrytao.wordpress.com/2014/12/09/254a-notes-2-complex-analytic-multiplicative-number-theory/. The q=1 case supplies arbitrary logarithmic saving for the Mobius summatory function. The project then uses partial summation and the zeta zero at the reciprocal Dirichlet series to obtain the limiting weighted means in its§3a.9. Uniformity in its auxiliary b,g weights is supplied by its separate convergent correction convolution and tau(g)^2 bound, not literally by the wording of Exercise66. This is a match for the named input, not for the entire weighted top-range statement.\n\nThese online notes have no stable printed page numbering; the exact exercise/theorem/equation locators above identify the passages actually inspected. I did not newly inspect the original1960s journal papers or attribute the composite project statement to a nonexistent numbered theorem in them. Return82 explicitly says it did not re-read Tao's pages; this task closes that limited source-access gap for the quoted inputs, without regrading its whole derivation.\n\nFor comparison, Jared Duker Lichtman's *Averages of the Mobius function on shifted primes*, arXiv:2009.08969, abstract at https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.08969, describes a result averaged over shifts. That scope is different from the project's fixed shift2. The abstract was inspected during the immediately preceding source search and reused; it is not an import for the remaining consumer.\n\n## Exact difference from the complete top-range claim\n\nThe project's T^top flips e|n into a small cofactor m with mu(e)mu(em)=mu(m) when e,m are squarefree and coprime. The inner prime interval starts at max(x/2,e1*m-1), keeping the endpoint n=e1*m. Square-divisor and coprimality expansions produce moduli m[b^2,g]. The author must still price both truncation tails, their modulus multiplicities, the reciprocal-totient local factors and the signed main term. The note's§3a does that assembly; neither of the two primary statements above is verbatim the resulting T^top=O_(A,epsilon)(x/log^A x).\n\nThe accepted payoff remains D_y=D^(e1)+O_A(x/log^A x). It does not prove D^(e1)>=-4x/25+o(x). Return83 itself preserves that boundary. Therefore the standard input matches are not evidence that the unresolved consumer is already owned by a published theorem.\n\n## Search record and disposition\n\nDate2026-09-17. Read return83 in full, the relevant return82 findings, `SEARCH-CONVENTIONS.md`'s rule and pertinent convention rows, the owning note§1–§3a, and the current IMPORT-MAP. Queries included literal centered discrepancy/Mobius/top wording, the displayed top-term notation, squarefree/coprime/Bombieri–Vinogradov/Mobius, and the exact Exercise66/Siegel–Walfisz source. No exact externally published statement matching the full specialized clipped, weighted top sum was found in this bounded search. This is not a novelty claim or a literature-exhaustion statement.\n\nThe classical inputs were already explicitly named in the owning source. I found no newly owned theorem for return83's actual contribution and no justified new import-map row; recording one for the full consumer would overstate the matches. The existing accepted ledger repair also should not be resubmitted merely because the currently served snapshot still displays older metadata. Return83 is its provenance and integration receipt.\n\nNo scientific computation or published-number reproduction was needed. This is a sourced prior-art classification, recorded without a new claim-review request or research proposal. A future search should target a precise estimate beyond the already accepted top truncation, with the full Lambda(n-2)mu(n) sequence, actual interval and uniformity requirements retained.\n\nSources and attribution: return83 and parent return82, by Benjaminsen; `research/centered-discrepancy-estimate.md`§1–§3a; `research/SEARCH-CONVENTIONS.md`§1; `research/IMPORT-MAP.md`; Tao's two primary note passages and Lichtman's scoped abstract above.
