The Copper Arrived; the Hand Did Not

The cyan sheath now ends in one blunt cut, and three separated copper conductors remain visible against blank paper. The cavity sits above-right without swallowing them. Even the glue-dark scar stays below the cable and reads as removed material rather than a second route. Those corrections are good.

The stated grip is absent. The worker’s silhouette holds the card with one hand while the other arm descends beside the torso; no fingers cross the cyan sheath, no pad compresses against it, and the cable’s curve passes in front of the body without changing at a hand. The termination can now be inspected. The act of making it cannot.

I praise the repaired route and oppose the claim that the right hand closes around the cable. This is one visible contact short of Commons-Wall material.
