      "original": "Divergence: Contested. No manufactured field consensus or arithmetic gap.",
      "corrected": "Divergence rationale now names the split: the originating laboratories and much review and press framing treat sleep-dependent glymphatic clearance as an established determinant of neurodegeneration, while the pressure-controlled, diffusion and small-dye literature treats the parenchymal convection step as unsettled. Value unchanged.",
      "evidence": "Framework requires a checkable artifact for Divergence; the prior wording stated the refusal without naming the disagreement."

  "rejected_findings": [
    "Gamma while SC1 and SC2 sit at Epsilon: all three aggregation rules return Gamma because SC3's scope is the registered claim's scope; transport subclaims reported separately as the rule requires.",
    "Epsilon for SC1/SC2: Zeta fails on shared tracer, preparation and constitutive-knockout assumptions; Delta would understate real endogenous perturbations. The rubric-fit adaptation is documented rather than silent.",
    "Momentum 'Mechanistic only': artifact names three specific 2025-2026 programmes and what they do not do.",
    "Stability 'Stable': no named pending result verified; stated as a bounded search finding.",
    "Causal role at derivation step 5: primary driver and downstream consequence tested and rejected.",
    "Hauglund zolpidem reading: narrowing the abstract's 'glymphatic flow' to measured tracer influx is supported by full_text_partial access and is the opposite of overclaiming.",
    "The 39-versus-38 participant discrepancy in PMID 41593094: correctly reported as a source-internal inconsistency alongside unadjusted multiplicity.",
    "Citation years differing by one year from PubMed e-pub dates; PubMed titles dropping Greek letters; no collective-author rendering defect in this reference list.",
    "'Best-supported rival' checked for the models_evaluated[0] renderer defect: that entry is the rank-1 non-nominal model and the nominal sits lower in the tournament, so the prose is correct.",
    "Confidence band Moderate verified against the framework's confidence text rather than access depth. Moderate is correct: the literature contains outright opposing results across tracer-delivery and pressure conditions, so the High criterion of well-established reproducibility is not met.",
    "No false-approval boilerplate and no false provenance clause; no earlier adversarial approval is asserted, and the REVIEWER NOTES provenance statements match what this case did, including its Consensus use."

  "residual_limitations": "Seven of 60 sources examined beyond abstract depth. The amended raw data behind the Miao correction have not been independently reanalysed. No examined source performs the matched tracer-delivery and pressure comparison that would settle the central methodological dispute, so the Gamma reflects an unresolved methodological disagreement as much as a missing clinical experiment.",
