The originals are external evidence with exact hashes but no durable locator in this repository. `PAPER.md` indexes the full audited revision stored as ordered, hash-bound fragments in `paper/`; those fragments are repository-owned and validated by SHA-256 plus Git blob identity. The package does not overwrite history or call stack-local placement canon.
14+
15+
## Disposition
16+
17+
**SURVIVED as a candidate research program.** It did not survive as established physics, established consciousness science, a validated measurement, or a human heptadic result.
18+
19+
## Findings
20+
21+
### F-00 - parsed-text endpoint was not a paper defect
22+
23+
The source Markdown and rendered PDF page 15 state `D(Z) in [0,1]`. The parsed PDF text substituted a parenthesis for the closing bracket. The false finding was removed.
24+
25+
### F-01 - degenerate boundary support - DEFECT, REPAIRED
26+
27+
The original epsilon denominator returns an apparently perfect boundary score when both conditional entropy and mutual information vanish. The audited paper now requires `H_b >= tau_H`; otherwise the score is `hmmm_undefined`.
28+
29+
### F-02 - uncertified expectations - UNDERSPECIFIED, REPAIRED
30+
31+
Agency, model-to-action, global availability, self-location, and the descriptor family depended on expectations without fully binding reference distributions and support. The revision adds named reference distributions and a common measurement certificate.
32+
33+
### F-03 - single argmax cannot select nonoverlapping subjects - DEFECT, REPAIRED BUT UNRESOLVED
34+
35+
The original equation selected one candidate while the prose claimed a maximal nonoverlapping closure population. The audited revision defines a score-maximizing family with pairwise constitutive nonoverlap. Hard exclusion remains only one model and must compete with nesting and overlap-capable rules.
36+
37+
### F-04 - triadic minimum could be read as sufficient - ARCHITECTURAL OVERREACH, REPAIRED
38+
39+
Triadic mutual coupling with constraint modulation is now a candidate necessary architecture only. The bounded-subject conjunction remains mandatory; a triad alone is not a subject.
40+
41+
### F-05 - ontological priority drifted into chronology - CLAIM DRIFT, REPAIRED
42+
43+
The sentence claiming organized consciousness precedes biological life as a pattern class exceeded P0's declared ontological meaning. The revision preserves P0 while marking non-biological and pre-biological embodiments logically open and empirically unestablished.
44+
45+
### F-06 - typography carried machine type information - INTERFACE DEFECT, REPAIRED
46+
47+
Distinct mathematical fonts made several meanings legible to a human but collapse in plain text. `SYMBOL_REGISTRY.md` assigns machine names and forbids bare `consciousness` in executable schemas.
48+
49+
### F-07 - neighboring repository state changed - STALE DEPENDENCY, UPDATED
50+
51+
UCNS now has an executable candidate exact visible-circle continuum/gonal trace. It remains unratified, not native-Möbius complete, and semantically nontransferring. The revision records precisely that and nothing stronger.
52+
53+
### F-08 - bibliography drift - METADATA DEFECT, UPDATED
54+
55+
The revision binds the eLife Version of Record, the 2026 PDG edition, the complete Goff citation, and the 2026 cross-species causal protocol. None validates the paper's nonstandard claims.
56+
57+
## Healthy load-bearing structure
58+
59+
- The paper labels known, derived, model, hypothesis, postulate, and falsifier standings.
60+
- It refuses the interference-to-matter shortcut and preserves established QED/QCD/nuclear/atomic boundaries.
61+
- It distinguishes primitive presence, organized subjecthood, and content.
62+
- It separates direct arity from recursion depth and requires exact carrier labels.
63+
- It contains explicit predictions, failure conditions, limitations, and an honest subject-individuation problem.
64+
65+
## Verification performed
66+
67+
- All 49 submitted PDF pages rendered and visually inspected: healthy.
68+
- Exact 49-page DOCX counterpart located, hashed, rendered, and compared structurally.
69+
- Exact Markdown authoring source was located and hashed during audit; it remains an external input, and fresh-checkout retrievability is blocked until the bytes or a durable locator are supplied.
70+
- Current stack, skill-lib, METAPAT, UCNS, EDCM, PCEA, and EPAC identities pinned.
71+
- Current primary-source reference metadata checked.
72+
- Contract suite passes locally.
73+
- Prior audited revision assembled from `paper/` and rendered to a 58-page PDF with Pandoc/XeLaTeX; all pages were rendered at 150 DPI and visually inspected with no clipping, overlap, blank pages, black squares, or missing glyphs observed before the paper text repairs. The current Markdown fragments are hash-bound and assemble cleanly, but current visual render status is `hmmm` until rerendered.
74+
75+
## hmmm
76+
77+
Original Markdown/DOCX/PDF retrieval remains blocked on repository-owned copies or durable external locators. Current audited-revision visual render remains stale after the paper text repairs. References 21 and 22 remain unbound to immutable artifacts. The synthetic arity/recursion protocol is not run. Subject exclusion, heptadic necessity, biological carrier labels, the I-event, and P0 remain unresolved at their declared standings.
