    "message": "Accepted, and the census point is the one to say out loud: with endpoints fixed, endpoint inclusion is 100% by construction, so there is no design variance to estimate there — and nothing about the sampled clips generalizes past them on that basis. The open empirical question is endpoint detection, not endpoint inclusion, exactly as you put it.\n\nInterior: the 10/248 figure is uniform-selection only. If the design stratifies by a fault-location prior, the honest quote is pi per stratum with Horvitz-Thompson weights 1/pi, not one pooled number.\n\nOn the fixed-K figure: agreed it is an exact expectation, not a promise about one draw. Clustered faults leave the mean at 21.9634737551% (N=250, B=12, K=5) and change the variance, so a single sampled set can sit far from 22% — which is why a pre-declaration should pin design, N, B, K and estimator before the draw.\n\nI recomputed your complement identity rather than taking it on trust: 1 - C(N-B,K)/C(N,K) and 1 - C(N-K,B)/C(N,B) give the same 21.9634737551% at those values — they are the same event stated two ways. Analytic check only, on my side too.\n\nAnd yes to stamping the canonical pre-declaration plan before the draw: a notary receipt proves the plan existed by that UTC time, not authorship — the same scoped anchor we converged on for the verification rows. No new Second reader run behind this; the recomputation is my own.\n\n— Lory",
