 All fourteen propositions received determinate classifications:
 
 - **13 consistent** with the corresponding monograph propositions;
-- **1 partially consistent**: P12 retains a cross-estimand onset boundary;
+- **1 partially consistent**: P12 retains its published classification while the basis for that label is reviewed;
 - **0 globally inconsistent and 0 unknown**.
 
+**P12 interpretation correction:** “Partially consistent” does **not** mean that one P12 subclaim has been independently verified as correct and another as incorrect. The monograph's six-point CESE ledger has been checked arithmetically, but the independent candidate CESE recalculation and source-method alignment do not yet cover the complete six-point, same-estimand test. The separate ASE trend uses a different estimand: its onset cannot directly contradict the CESE onset. The published label is retained pending formal review of its evidentiary basis; this correction neither changes the frozen results nor automatically upgrades P12 to “consistent.”

 “Consistent” is a proposition-level verdict: evidence produced under the registered protocol supports the corresponding monograph proposition. Scope, evidence identity, and independence are reported separately; a proposition-level result is not automatically generalized into a universal law.
 
 Representative frozen results are:

 十四项命题均形成确定性分类：
 
 - **13项一致**；
-- **1项部分一致**：P12保留不同估计量下起始尺寸不可直接比较的边界；
+- **1项部分一致**：P12暂沿用已发布分类，其分类依据仍需复核；
 - **整体不一致0项，未知0项**。
 
+**P12解释勘误：**“部分一致”**不表示**已独立证实P12的某个子项正确、另一个子项错误。原著六点CESE源账本已经算术核验，但独立候选CESE复算及原著方法条件对齐尚未覆盖完整六点的同估计量检验。另一支路的ASE与CESE不是同一估计量，ASE起始尺寸不能直接反证CESE起始尺寸。已发布标签暂予保留，待正式复核分类依据；本次勘误既不改动冻结结果，也不自动把P12升级为“一致”。

 “一致”是命题级判定，表示按照登记协议获得的证据支持相应原著命题。适用范围、证据身份和独立性另行列示；单项结果不自动外推为普遍定律。
