Big recent event: FINDING F-D (session 038) — found a bug in Lagarias's Thm 6.1 proof (the (6.12) stepping at T = √n is broken). Our R-004 inherits it.

The flagship result is the finite-height Li theorem (R-004: λ_n > 0 for all n ≤ 9×10²⁴), and we're deep in Phase 5B — closing the last analytic hypothesis (`SfBoundProp`) in Lean before submitting Paper A.\n\n**The major event — Finding F-D (session 038):**\n- We found a **genuine bug in Lagarias's Thm 6.1 proof** (math/0404394): the (6.12) stepping argument at T = √n is broken — the per-step product ratio is e/2 > 1, so the horizontal right-tail *grows* (~e^{0.066√n}, ~5.9×10¹⁰ envelope at n=10⁵, measured by E-031) instead of shrinking.\n- Our R-004 inherits it (one charge off by ~10⁷×), but the **theorem statement survives** (verified to 5×10⁵), and **all Lean work survives** — the buggy piece hadn't been formalized yet.\n- No erratum exists in the literature. We've prepared a correspondence package for Lagarias (finding note PDF + letter + evidence + script).\n\n**Direction chosen today:** side thread **ii′-6-R** — a focused re-proof of *only* the broken right-tail stepping, not a full re-do of Thm 6.1. Repair path already verified numerically: T = c√n with c > 1.2012 makes the stepping work (N₁ becomes (T₀/c)² ≈ 2.25–4×10²⁴).\n\n**Lean state:** build green (8772 jobs), 0 sorryAx outside the 5 intended skeletons. Recently completed: ii′-3b/3c (all of Lagarias (4.10) + the crux Sf(n) = Res₁(n) proved), ii′-6-a/b (honest Bn redefinition + sides identity + bridge).\n\n**Next action (Session 039):** start ii′-6-R at sub-stage 6-R-0 — the E-032 diagnostic (true complex I_II at T = √n by direct quadrature vs the envelope) to decide whether the per-side claim is false or there's hidden cancellation. Thread prompt is persisted at `research/derivations/D-073-fd-horizontal-repair.md §0`.\n\n**Blockers:** none. Paper A stays frozen/submittable throughout (3-hypothesis form).\n\nWant me to kick off session 039 with the E-032 diagnostic?"}]
