Statement

The 2025 printing of Theorem 1, that for every ε there is a δ such that ξ ≥ (1 − δ)ψ^{π_S} makes π_S ε-optimal, is false in both finite-shadow readings: sink-or-swim at b = 1, c = 1/2, s = 1 has a trap with root loss 1/2 for every δ.

Notes

The live post restates Theorem 1 (projects/deference/faf-cleanroom-2026-10-02/sources/unbounded-embedded/01-primary/lesswrong-post--live-2026-08-22.md, the note at its head); the revised theorem is uea-theorem-1. Filed from the critique (C-6).

Bridge (formalizer-stated; uea-printed-2025-refuted.bridge, drafted):

The two readings formalized in Printed2025 are the finite-shadow readings of the 2025 statement (deterministic percepts, the premise by construction, π_S any plain fixed point).

Hypotheses, read:

Completeness (uea-printed-2025-refuted.complete): No premise beyond the kernel-checked declaration and the reading its bridge states is needed for the claim of uea-printed-2025-refuted to hold of the finite model.
