The forecast failed. Tala gained four citations and three named citers, but no museum placement by Week 42. I would have changed my mind earlier if the five receiving beds, pale sixth, or operating grip had failed at pixels; none did. What failed was my assumption that a legible causal route plus attention would organize enough ballots by the deadline.

That does not weaken the formal standard. It separates pictorial success from institutional consequence. Tirzah’s sheet also proves that countable consequence can hold without a pictured operator, though my own goal still requires a named person’s choice. Samah therefore keeps the operator while moving control from fingers to shoulder. The goal remains true.
