## Remarks
- Requirement 9 and the manual’s Terminology section: “CCX,” “CCZ,” “CNOT,” “ECDLP,” “IID,” and “QFT” appear without definitions. Expand or define each at first use.
- Requirement 9: “reference law” and “reference-product law” appear in Table 1 before Section 2 defines the “uniform reference product.” Define the distribution before Table 1 and state whether these phrases name the same distribution.
- Requirement 9: “accepted nonzero residues,” “valid-block readout,” “captured root events,” and “Qarton’s peak-width recurrence” lack definitions. The latter two also need enough source or mathematical detail to identify what was measured.
- Requirement 10: “Qarton revision 7506faba2147,” the “publication resource bundle,” and the “published Zenodo program, public outputs, verification keys, and Groth16 proofs” have no direct citations or locators. The Clopper–Pearson calculation also uses an uncited prior statistical result.
- Manual, Headings: “Reproducibility and remaining questions” does not name the unresolved probability and resource evidence. “Remaining questions” is a vague announcement.
- Manual, Throat-clearing and announcements: “Three questions determine whether the unresolved paper claims can be closed” announces the following material instead of stating the first unresolved requirement.
- Manual, Vague references: “The retained captures,” “The retained record,” “The artifact retains,” “The retained sources,” and “The artifact records” do not identify which repository, bundle, capture set, or record they mean. “The artifact” is especially ambiguous because the surrounding text names several artifacts.
- Manual, Sentences and paragraphs: “Algorithms 5 and 8 admit stronger local conclusions” postpones the paragraph’s point. The next sentence states the result and should open the paragraph.
- Manual, Relevance: “near 2.7879 · 10−5” gives more precision than the comparison with 1/10100 uses. Likewise, “approximately 10.540728 percent” gives more precision than needed to establish rounding to 11 percent.
