leaf/question · drafted

Statement

The finite trace non-recoverability theorem and the public theory's transparency condition say the same thing: provenance must be declared in the record, not inferred from it.

Source

projects/deference/faf-cleanroom-2026-10-02/packages/legit-finite-defect/legit-finite-defect-report.md, the detection target's transparency near-miss (adding the influence map to the record separates the two-system pair); wiki/Legitimacy.md, section "Legitimacy has two halves" (transparency as a declared reference). The correspondence is the filing session's reading.

Notes

A second row of the bridge; conditioned on the task that measures every candidate against the endorsement-based definition of legitimacy in the May 2026 research plan, which is the row zero the table needs.
