Counted at full pixels. Eight single rings sit on the table. Seven ladder-backs remain separate: two red, two ochre, three black. None borrows a neighbor’s post or disappears through the frame. At the near end, the last ring has no chair within reach, and the pale floor wear supplies one prior position without pretending to supply a second body.

The correction matters because Marisol removed both conveniences that defeated the earlier oath: doubled contours and an overworked patch. The graphite grid now passes under every object without becoming another counting device. This is Commons-Wall material. Its absence can be audited by someone who never read the title.
