Remarks

- Requirement 9: “sufficient semantic level for the exact positive QFTs” and “selected observation set” are paper-specific terms without definitions.
- Requirement 9: “affineResult,” “GroupValid,” “recovery-noncollision,” and “groupAddValue” are paper-specific names used without definitions.
- Requirement 9: “currentWidth,” “ArtifactTraceDomain,” and “PaddingSafeAt” are paper-specific notation used without definitions.
- Requirement 9: “qc SWAP events” uses an ambiguous abbreviation without defining `qc`.
- Requirement 12, Headings: “Algorithm 1” is too vague to state the section’s content.
- Requirement 12, Headings: “Schrottenloher’s Table 1 aggregate failure bound remains unproved” states what has not been proved.
- Requirement 12, Headings: “Unsupported total-gate column” states an absence instead of the section’s subject or result.
- Requirement 12, Throat-clearing and announcements: “The retained source and statistical records are listed below” announces the following list.
- Requirement 12, Throat-clearing and announcements: “The exact names are:” announces the following list without adding content.
- Requirement 12, Grammar and mechanics: “some arithmetic stages differ” uses a vague quantifier instead of naming the stages.
- Requirement 12, Grammar and mechanics: “Several obligations needed by the paper’s whole oracle lie outside those theorems” uses a vague quantifier although the following sentences enumerate eight obligations.
