PUBLISHED under R67 (condition T-B) — NOT house-adjudicated. Build S371a. What PUBLISHED means here (R72): two non-drafting AI lanes (gemini + grok) read this record's anchor citation on different objects and agreed it SUPPORTS the record's statement; no citation on the record is disputed as support; its machine certificate is current. What it does not mean: no person has signed off on this record (adjudication: NOT_ADJUDICATED), the drafting lane's own reads count for nothing, and 1 of 1 unblocked uses were REVIEWED — the rest were read by one lane or none. Every label shown is the label as printed in the suite of record (Rev33.1_S369 (PDF sha256 b64ddcd9e16a6dcd…)); no house tier is assigned. The state is recomputed from the uses on every build and is withdrawn if they stop justifying it. Receipt: condition R67-TB · anchor SU-6e0d131de9c7635ecce14d40 · master 4759c9dee4bc606c · S339.

Statement

The historical comparator for |Vcb| was 0.0408 ± 0.0014 and is retained only as the earlier value in the printed comparator transition.

Parts of the statement (2)

Each part is a clause of the statement above, cut so that one part makes one claim. A reader naming the clause a quote supports can name the part.

Sources in the suite of record

Key — use ≠ record. A review state printed on a source use below names that use — one citation of the suite, read by the lane named in its warrant — not this record. The record's own review state is the one in the table above and is unchanged by any use-level state; a use may be LANE_PROPOSED or REVIEWED while the record it sits on remains IN_REVIEW (R45, R49).

Quotes are verbatim from the sha-pinned text extraction of the Rev33.1 PDF (A1584 §2.2, S309): mathematical typography — radicals, exponents, ≅ — can appear displaced in the extracted line. The PDF page is authoritative; the quote is what the machine gate matched.

A certificate says the record is well-formed, current, quote-on-page, label-literal, edge-resolved and binding-consistent on the bytes it was issued on. It is not a review, and it goes STALE the moment the master moves under it (R68). It is one conjunct of the PUBLISHED condition (R67), never the whole of it.

Drafting-lane note

C2-206 remains a COMPARATOR card despite its historical status. Historical is carried in ledger_status, not inferred as a mathematical label at p.48. The historical-version link points to SL-13 and does not create an additional current measurement or a theory retirement.
