No comparator uncertainty, Registrar comparator ID or SL ID accompanies the precise muon cell. The QED percentage is supplied as a matching input; the script does not claim to derive it from an unspecified electromagnetic coupling.

The script uses the displayed correction, not a newly chosen value of \alpha.
Derivation chain
row 17a
- Take the tau anchor and retained mass-ratio formula. The source identifies the exponent and geometric normalization but explicitly distinguishes those exact facts from a derivation selecting them as mass coefficients. (
appendix_a_lagrangian_derivation.tex:699-704;appendix_x_zero_parameter_input_ledger.tex:419-420). - Multiply without first rounding the mass ratio. The residual is the source’s coefficient gap, not an automatically generated radiative correction. (
p2_mass_hierarchy_resolvent_quintics.tex:226-233). - NOT IN SUITE — the physical exponent/normalization selector. The supplied provenance paragraph expressly retains its target-first origin and blocking formal derivation. (
appendix_a_lagrangian_derivation.tex:704).
row 17b
- Reuse the unrounded structural tree mass; do not absorb its coefficient gap into the matching correction. (
p2_mass_hierarchy_resolvent_quintics.tex:226-235). - Apply the positive supplied correction by division, as printed. (
p2_mass_hierarchy_resolvent_quintics.tex:234-236). - NOT IN SUITE — in the supplied excerpts, the fully specified electromagnetic-coupling and matching prescription that reproduces the quoted correction independently. Its numerical value is therefore a declared calculation input here. (
appendix_x_zero_parameter_input_ledger.tex:97).

row 17a
LIB2-122 — Carries the retained ratio and its loaded provenance.
LIB2-123 — Carries the coefficient-gap interpretation of the tree residual.
LIB2-125 — Carries the tau-anchored tree mass.
Comparator NONE — no matching comparator record is supplied for this exact entry; the stated cell is retained without inventing an ID.
row 17b
LIB2-122 — Carries the inherited structural ratio.
LIB2-125 — Carries its anchored tree mass.
LIB2-126 — Carries the separate QED division and supplied correction.
Comparator NONE — no matching comparator record is supplied for this exact entry; the stated cell is retained without inventing an ID.
LIB2-127 concerns the downstream electron construction. Superseded empirical mass proposals are not used.
Calculation
Run python3 N17_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.

Comparison
row 17a
Theory 106.05 MeV; the supplied experimental cell is 105.6583755 MeV, a charged-lepton mass comparator. Signed deviation +0.37%. The precise comparator’s uncertainty and edition/ledger binding are not supplied, so no d is calculated. This is the retained structural fit gap, not a subtraction justified by the next variant.
row 17b
Theory 105.72 MeV against the same 105.6583755 MeV comparator; signed deviation rounds to +0.06%. The source’s finer +0.058% display depends on the rounded-value convention; both paths are printed. No uncertainty or exact edition binding accompanies the comparator, and d is unavailable. No additional renormalization scale is inferred from the label “physical.”
Tier and what this does not show
Row 17a literal tier: Structural / loaded, status fit gap. Row 17b literal tier: same, status —; “same” refers to the preceding tier. The tau anchor, exponent, normalization and quoted correction are consumed. Improved agreement does not derive the physical coefficient selector or erase the original tree gap.
