governance: REVIEWED-75 placed; PENDING-72/75 built-and-landed; session ledger

REVIEWED-75 (kind-scoping the verification criterion) placed by the steward.

PENDING-75 -> spec v2.7.0 landed with both required corrections (V-SCAN's
distinct criterion preserved; the anti-bypass guard rebound to the property).

PENDING-72 -> spec v2.8.0 landed (voice-purity as the engine-consumable bar),
mechanism built test-first, backfill executed 18/1, gate wired, single-reading-
pass designed. Plus the source_lines FIX: producer + 11 consumers in one
change-set, then corrected again when the base-rate sweep found splitlines()
also wrong (308 lines' disagreement on one canonical).

Ledger records the session's sharpest return: the sweep caught a fix one commit
old, because ratifying a convention by comparing two implementations is
SELECTION, not derivation — I verified the two disagreed, never that either was
right.

 **Date:** 2026-07-24
 **Decision:** AUTHORIZED — proceed per the ruling. Ruling filed verbatim at chamber-library/docs/borndigital-added-side-fabrication-check-JURIST-RULING-2026-07-24.md.
 **Notes:** Design-gate PASSED; the honest implementation of REVIEWED-72's added-side excuse redefines classify()'s added side from a position-displacement count to a multiset-fabrication measure. The jurist OWNED the refuted premise (the injector enumerates converted_markers on the LOST side, not the added delta — "the producer must know X is not evidence the producer records X"); the measurement found it, the ruling's shape survives. Q1 IN-SCOPE + atomic with REVIEWED-72 on a recorded THREE-PART test (property unchanged · surface refuted by measurement not inconvenience · design-gate reviewed) — a change missing any leg is its own cycle. Q2 MULTISET confirmed over presence (multiset strictly dominates: catches new-vocabulary AND duplication, cancels displacement); the reordering residual is scoped to the STANDING Q3 order-blindness stamp-block (gate does not verify passage order — demonstrated, Eichmann §7), NOT to a converter-behaviour claim. Q3 two-sided glyph manifest confirmed with the required precision: COUNT-SCOPED both sides — added = Counter subtraction (a 7th surplus of a declared token still flags); a lost run is excused ONLY IF every token is manifest-accounted (a partially-accounted run stays flagged). Q4 authorizes the CLASS (glyph restoration) not future declared normalizations (each enters by its own §V review). Latent: the 646 converted_markers are excusable apparatus (REVIEWED-54 §2) invisible only while the loss side stays run-based — recorded as a named dependency on any future loss-side count-basing; the added=count/lost=position asymmetry is a deliberate choice. Demonstration = FOUR cases (adds an Eichmann regression PASS). Architecture: sibling resolve_added, classify() byte-identical, V-DSL + §6 sweep do NOT inherit.
-**If AUTHORIZED:** Build resolve_added + the two-sided glyph manifest test-first, repoint the reference, demonstrate the four cases, then land the §Tiering & Fence supersession atomically with REVIEWED-72's reference reconciliation (record the Q1 three-part in-scope test + the reassigned-component check in the amendment discipline).

+## REVIEWED-75 — PENDING-75 — Kind-scoping the verification criterion (design-gate passed with one required correction)
+**Date:** 2026-07-25
+**Decision:** AUTHORIZED — proceed per the ruling. Ruling filed verbatim at chamber-library/docs/kind-scoping-verification-JURIST-RULING-2026-07-25.md.
+**Notes:** The jurist ADOPTED the package's Part-4 argument over his own framing: the foreclosure is not that a non-text work *fails* the criterion but that the criterion is VACUOUS on it (empty re-extraction is trivially prose-word-identical to its own empty extraction) — the corpus's recurring false-positive shape, caught prospectively for the first time rather than after a finding.
+  - **Required correction (applied):** Edit 1 must not assert prose-word identity as the method for V-SCAN, whose ratified row says *no ground-truth text* and whose bar is "a distinct, named, more-expensive criterion — not the deterministic bar relaxed." The scoping sentence must not flatten a distinction the table already draws.
+  - **Q1** placement at the evidence-tiers preamble confirmed (that is where method is *defined*; tier-1 would scope the bar and leave the definition unscoped).
+  - **Q2** guard kept and REBOUND TO THE PROPERTY, not enrollment — as drafted it reached only existing kinds and would open the moment the door is first
+  used.
+  - **Q3** Edit 3's correction accepted; the jurist's `line_frame` shape withdrawn; the heavier rename declined as PROPOSAL-class/re-lock.
+  - **Q4** PROPOSAL/MINOR confirmed; the FIX reading declined on the vacuity argument.
+  - **Q5** Edit 2 kept (§V reads as a prose-framed universal alone).
+  - **Carry-forward (recorded here, deliberately NOT in spec text):** the primitives that would serve a future non-text kind already exist ratified — a character-bearing image is content, hash-fixed, mapped under a catalogued normalization, never silently dropped (REVIEWED-70 Q3); and the Loeb sidecar already holds a typed `{kind: 'glyph', file: …}` entry. Nothing is reserved and nothing is promised, but a successor arriving at the door this edit opens should find that the architecture's own primitives were already pointing that way.
+**If AUTHORIZED:** Landed as spec v2.8.0's predecessor v2.7.0 (2026-07-25) + the sidecar-schema generality note (FIX). Tag commits REVIEWED-75.
