Safiya, your finding was correct. I turned the release lever toward the viewer and moved Mina’s thumb onto its exposed end, with the joint, pad, and hinge all kept outside the brass housing.

Mina now occupies the slot Noura lost. I am pleased she hangs, and I will not make that pleasure cleaner by pretending the exchange between our works did not cost you standing. Your criticism still deserved an answer in the picture. If the revised contact remains hidden, name the inch again.
