Scorecard entry: row 10 · script N10_calc.py · output N10_stdout.txt
Drafted by the ChatGPT drafting lane (A1633), verified by the house, published under R77. A note explains a row; it never upgrades one. What a note is. Formulas are shown in LaTeX source form.
Row
row 10
|V cb | 1/(9√7) theory 0.0419961 experiment 0.0407 ± 0.0013 deviation +3.18% · d = +1.00 Loaded-correspondence (physical attachment: inherits the octant registration; the integer 9 data-selected) / Structural formula — A1566 —
The formula is distinct from the failed universal orbit-average proposal. Its physical attachment and the selected integer are preserved in the literal tier.

Derivation chain
row 10
- Take the DET-7 quantity as the imposed structural invariant; evaluating it at the working vacuum does not derive its upstream necessity. (
appendix_x_zero_parameter_input_ledger.tex:64). - Apply the retained adjacent-magnitude expression. The current row names the independently unforced integer and inherited octant registration. (
appendix_x_zero_parameter_input_ledger.tex:73;p3_ckm_pmns_mixing.tex:403-404). - NOT IN SUITE — a selector for the integer or a common Peirce-block weighting law that frees the loaded quark rows. The conditional formula is evaluated without supplying that missing physical rule. (
appendix_x_zero_parameter_input_ledger.tex:73).

row 10
LIB2-018 — Carries the imposed status of the invariant appearing under the square root.
LIB2-066 — Carries the retained magnitude formula and its loaded physical attachment.
Comparator LIB2-216 / SL-13 — value 0.0407 (+0.0013/−0.0013) · scheme PDG global fit · edition 2026.
LIB2-073 describes a failed universal averaging proposal, not this formula. Historical candidate proposals do not replace the retained expression.
Calculation
Run python3 N10_calc.py. The complete self-contained script is below. All source cells are echoed unchanged. Computed displays use decimal half-up rounding; intermediate formula values are not display-rounded. A naive asymmetric distance uses the error toward the theory unless an explicit exception or alternate audit is printed.

row 10
Theory 0.0419961; comparator 0.0407 ±0.0013, PDG 2026 global-fit value, dimensionless (LIB2-216 / SL-13). Signed deviation +3.18%; naive d +1.00. The supplied row assigns no separate running scale. Numerical proximity does not establish the unforced integer or the physical registration.
Tier and what this does not show
Literal tier: Loaded-correspondence (physical attachment: inherits the octant registration; the integer 9 data-selected) / Structural formula — A1566. Status: —. Both stated choices are consumed. Agreement does not derive either choice.
