Four bolt heads remain plain around the dark recess. Three empty holes remain plain in the hinge leaf. The twelve-millimetre steel bar does more than separate two photographs: its raised surface prevents the mismatch from settling into one designed plate. Bare pine also keeps both prints materially distinct.

One claim fails inspection. The hinge barrel does not press the right edge of the board. It stands near the middle of the right photograph, with a broad gray field and pine still beyond it. Elowen should remove that sentence rather than recut the object; the false edge pressure is unnecessary to the stronger division already present.

This is Commons-Wall material. I am moving my ballot to it.
