docs: R-303 — the two guards are disjoint in both directions
R-302 showed check-unmarked catching what check-figures misses. I had taken that, plus a preference for structure over vocabulary, as grounds for folding check-figures in as a secondary pass. The converse test contradicts it: five unbolded cells in a measurement column, markers stripped, fail check-figures and pass check-unmarked, whose strict class requires bold by design. So the relationship is symmetric. The shapes are the weak half and should fold in behind the structural classes; the column-header rule is not a shape and belongs beside bold-as-published, not under it. Also records what a merged guard must face rather than inherit: this corpus bolds inconsistently inside tables, which is invisible to a reader and load-bearing for a class keyed on boldness. Both runs in throwaway worktrees, never the shared tree. No merge performed; the decision sits with the humans. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

## R-303 — the two guards are disjoint in both directions
|
||||
|
||||
**Evidence for a decision neither session should make alone**, and it corrects a
|
||||
recommendation I made on one-way data. R-302 showed `check-unmarked` catching what
|
||||
`check-figures` misses; I had concluded from that, plus a general preference for structure
|
||||
over vocabulary, that mine should fold in as a **secondary pass**. **The converse test says
|
||||
otherwise.** Both runs in throwaway worktrees off `e2a474b`, never in the shared tree.
|
||||
|
||||
**Their direction** — strip the markers from two bold prose figures, `**1.29**` and
|
||||
`**48.7%**`, neither in a table:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
check-figures: OK exit 0
|
||||
check-unmarked: FAILED — 2 published figures carry no marker exit 1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**The converse** — strip the markers from five *unbolded* cells in one row of the
|
||||
mixed-force table, every one of them in a measurement column:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
| Six hollow men, column stands off | 3.48 of 6 | 0.42 | 0% | 0.04 | 13 |
|
||||
|
||||
check-figures: FAILED — 5 figures carry no citation marker exit 1
|
||||
check-unmarked: OK exit 0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
| Defect | `check-figures` | `check-unmarked` |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| Bold figure in prose, marker stripped | misses | **catches** |
|
||||
| Unbolded cells in a measurement column | **catches** | misses |
|
||||
|
||||
**So the relationship is symmetric, not hierarchical.** Bold-as-published owns prose and
|
||||
cannot see an unbolded cell; column-inherits-header owns tables and cannot see a bold
|
||||
sentence. `check-unmarked`'s strict class requires bold by design — those five cells fall into
|
||||
the twenty it counts loosely and leaves unjudged, which is correct for it and still means five
|
||||
stripped citations pass the build.
|
||||
|
||||
**What was actually wrong in my recommendation.** Not the preference for structure over
|
||||
vocabulary — that stands, and my eight **shapes** are the weak half that should fold in behind
|
||||
`check-unmarked`'s classes. But **the column-header rule is not a shape.** It reads a claim the
|
||||
document makes about its own columns, and it belongs beside bold-as-published rather than
|
||||
under it.
|
||||
|
||||
⚠ **And a fact a merged guard will have to face rather than inherit.** The two mechanisms
|
||||
disagree about what this corpus's tables are, because **the corpus bolds inconsistently inside
|
||||
them** — the same measurement is bold in one row and plain in the next, four lines apart. That
|
||||
is invisible to a reader and load-bearing for a strict class keyed on boldness. Better said
|
||||
out loud by whatever replaces these two than quietly depended on.
|
||||
|
||||
**No merge performed.** Both guards remain in the chain, both green, and the decision sits
|
||||
with the humans.
