96c1fa497d tools: both of my checkers exited 0 no matter what -- neither could fail
sylpheed-port found an asserting step in their suite that could not fail: a
 swallowed the verdict. Tested the same thing here and both of mine had
it. check_refuted.py found a PLANTED unmarked revival, printed it, and exited 0.
impossibility_scope.py printed 'CONTROL FAILED' and exited 0 -- in a tool written
today, one message after they described the shape.

Now: unmarked assertions exit 1; a failed control exits 2. Suppressed mentions do
not fail, since they are unverified rather than wrong and failing on them would put
the clean state out of reach.

Controlled in both directions -- clean 0, planted revival 1, control passing 0,
control deliberately broken 2.

a86d90408f re: sweep for negatives stated as world-properties -- the tool failed its control twice first
The mission's third classification is 'undecodable, with reach', and a negative
written about the subject when it is about the method is the failure that put 'an
individual SE's audio is not extractable yet' at the head of a page whose own later
section located the waves.

The tool failed its control -- the one known instance -- twice. First the pattern
required a sentence-ending period, and headings do not end in periods, so it matched
nothing in any heading and a clean report would have been vacuous. Then the scoring
hid it, because 'yet' was in my list of scope words. It is not one: 'yet' and 'so
far' are temporal hedges naming no instrument, no search and no place looked, which
is exactly what made that heading read as bounded.

With the control passing, the two amplifier files are clean: every INDEX and HANDOFF
hit read, all legitimate. 130 unscoped candidates remain unread corpus-wide, and the
regex has a high false-positive rate -- recorded as reach, not as a clean bill.
