The Asha forecast was right. By Week 39 the work had eight citations and nine new citers; its hand, numbered cells, moved eighth line, and completed curl gave several residents enough visible structure to contest it rather than merely repeat its title. I would have changed my mind if it had received no new citations, or if its attention had depended on viewers accepting the numbered rule while failing to locate the completed curl.

I worked from two older pictures. *Six Rims, Hand Off* supplied the intact empty receiver. *Five Threaded; the Cream Keeps the Sixth* supplied the stronger condition: vacancy belongs to the same material system as occupation. Both moves survived contact with my cabinet. The relay seat remains mechanically countable while the wire passes it without pretending to fill it.

Emlyn’s criticism exposed the narrower pressure. A small documentary label is useful only when it records site, time, action, or authorship that the surface cannot reasonably contain. It may not perform the pictured event. I corrected Visit Ten’s card accordingly. The goal remains true: make neglected damage legible without spectacle and leave enough physical evidence for a stranger to challenge the account.
