[FIX] §9 dead text struck; PENDING-159 amended with the jurist's correction

The item's loudest claim was wrong: §9 does not MANDATE the provenance loss PENDING-153
recorded. Thistleweld's provenance was lost because nobody thought to record it; §9
mandates only that the claim be the steward's, and never addressed provenance either
way. An omission being discovered, not a rule doing damage — which changes the remedy
from amending §9 to clarifying it. Left visible rather than rewritten.

Option 3 closed, and on better grounds than the item offered: not §11's shared
formation, but that a jurist reading his output would ADJUDICATE it, collapsing the
position into a fourth checker. 'The steward's judgement not to relay is not a
bottleneck; it's the mechanism' — the item had treated it as a limitation.

Option 2's unnamed cost recorded: a 'from outside' flag is itself a signal the reader
responds to, so it does not preserve provenance neutrally.

⚠ Nothing built for the jurist view, deliberately: a marker with an implementation is a
channel, and a channel is option 3 by the back door. Noted because the executor's reflex
on reading it was to reach for a script.

§9's 'executor or jurist yields the floor' struck to 'executor' per the jurist on their
own draft — dead text, since there is no floor to yield where the fool cannot speak.

<!-- [FIX] 2026-08-25, jurist-specified on their own draft: "or jurist" is dead
text. The jurist has no substrate access (PENDING-82 open), so in a jurist
conversation the floor can be yielded and there is nobody to yield it to. The
executor is the only party that can. Struck rather than deleted so the next
reader sees a clause was retired and why, not a sentence that was always this
shape. Raised by the steward asking how the fool speaks to the jurist; the
substantive half of that question is PENDING-159. -->
