Verification ledger

  • 4 statements proposed by the extractor
  • 4 verified verbatim against the fetched filing (100%)
  • 0 discarded — not quotable character-for-character

The verbatim check contains no model: the extractor proposes a statement, and a deterministic substring match against the fetched text decides whether it is admissible. A proposal that does not verify is dropped.

This brief publishes no inference and no synthesis. The publication's inference layer must clear a measured second-lab confirmation threshold before it may appear; it has not, so it is absent by rule rather than by omission.
