Statement

The earlier selector argument ruled out every positivity or stability refinement on the premise that inequality conditions cannot reduce dimension.

Scope

domainThe universal inequality argument, not the bounded conclusion for the banked non-degenerate stability conditions.
What this does not show. The withdrawal does not make the tested stability conditions select a ray or derive the adopted action-shape principle.

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.

The house’s universal cone claim is withdrawn. An earlier banked argument held that no positivity- or stability-type refinement could answer the question because inequality conditions cannot reduce dimension.

Degenerate systems can lower dimension in principle, so any proposed selector must derive its everywhere-active equality locus independently and clear the circularity bar.

A successor is linked, never "derived from" the retired statement (charter §10.10).

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.

C2-121 retirement child. The current non-degenerate interior result and the closed banked inventory keep their own quantifiers. A possible degenerate equality locus is not a new selector supplied here.
