## Statement

The earlier ambient-Hessian calculation presented a baryon/meson mass ratio of approximately 6.7 as reproducing one hadron ratio.

## Caution

The numerical retirement does not retire the separate tensor-structure statement that the cubic baryonic channel survives the quadratic cancellation.

## Primary source

Paper 8, §4, Historical baryon/meson mass ratio, PDF p.125: "A self-consistent Faddeev-pole gap equation produced a baryon/meson mass ratio MB /MM ≈ 6.7, matching the PDG proton/pion value 938/140 at a single free coupling α ≈ 0.0025 (the ratio stays in 5–8 across all perturbative α)."
