Two additions found while designing Phase 1's projection.
1. NEW §1.7 — band v1b serves malformed surfaces today, user-visible:
in : All dogs are mammals. All mammals are animals.
Therefore all dogs are animals.
out: Given: all dog are mammal; all mammal are animal.
That's valid — all dog are animal follows.
render.py::_CATEGORICAL_PHRASE uses plural syntax ("all {s} are {p}")
but interpolates the reader's SINGULARIZED entity ids, with no
re-pluralization step — because reader and renderer sit on opposite
sides of the §1.3 seam. Affects every plural noun, regular or
irregular; 4 of 47 ratified corpus cases that serve a categorical
clause (ds-v1-0023/0024/0026/0028). wrong=0 is NOT threatened — every
verdict is correct; this is purely surface.
Compounding cause: the reader's plural table has 8 entries where the
v3-MEM band's has 29, so wolves->wolve, knives->knive, leaves->leave,
lives->live, halves->halve, loaves->loave, thieves->thieve,
elves->elve. CORE's two readers disagree on 12 of 20 plurals. The
wrong singulars do not break soundness (uniform deterministic
bijection) but they are why cause 2 needs a SHARED table.
2. CORRECTED §4 — the earlier draft claimed "Phases 1-3 cannot change
serving behaviour." That was wrong, and it is the same shape as the
mistakes this arc exists to fix: I classified a table as off-serving
without asking which callers reach it. reader.py::_IRREGULAR_PLURALS
IS serving-reachable (comprehend -> to_syllogism -> v1b ->
deduction_grounded_surface).
New rule: a table is off-serving only when EVERY caller is proven
eval-only. Phase 2 splits on that test into 2A (off-serving,
byte-identical) and 2B (serving tables + the render fix,
authorization-gated). Phase 2A now ships a caller-provenance test so
this check lives in the tree, not in a reviewer's head.

CORE cannot read its own writing. Measured on main @ 9696443a:
- round-trip is 0/280 (0.0%) — all 280 writer-produced surfaces refuse
with no_template_match; all six readers refuse all writer output,
including CORE's own live served surfaces (24 refusals, 0 comprehensions)
- 35 word-tables on the reading path vs 9 on the writing path,
Jaccard 0.083; three divergent _IRREGULAR_PLURALS tables, two of them
both on the reading side
- 9 of 26 predicates produce wrong plural agreement
("all wolves is defined a mammal"); two single-point root causes
- the fluency instrument is decorative: "banana does the." passes all
five content predicates, and 0 of 280 eval cases exercise the
quantifier x copular combination that breaks
- the good realizer (render_step, 232 lines) is eval-only; 149 green
fluency cases score a function that never serves
Central design decision: the instrument IS the fix. Grammaticality cannot
be measured without a grammar, so round-trip forces one artifact to both
parse and generate. Positive AND negative corpora are both load-bearing —
round-trip proves mutual intelligibility, not English quality.
Phases 1-3 cannot change serving; Phase 4 is authorization-gated. Phase 5
is deliberately unestimated until Phase 1 reports. Section 6 makes the
next direction a measured fork rather than an argument, and pre-commits to
the reading that the graph-model mismatch (MeaningGraph vs
PropositionGraph are not type-compatible) is the likelier barrier.
