 pass. This is the first standard-ResNet evidence for load-bearing innovation,
 but it is one short validation run and therefore leaves the score at 5/10.
 
-The predeclared D3 run is the next paper-changing gate. Only a complete
-near-BP 200-epoch pass can move the simulated reviewer score to 6 and authorize
-an independently frozen multi-seed test confirmation. If D3 fails, preserve
-the dynamic short result as a stability diagnosis and do not replace the
-schedule, thresholds, or traffic intervention.
+The predeclared D3 run passes all 19 gates at `91.18%` validation accuracy and
+opens the independently frozen D4 confirmation.  D4 then passes without seed
+replacement or threshold changes: dynamic innovation reaches `91.584%` mean
+test accuracy across seeds 10--14 versus clean KP's `91.388%`, with a
+clean-minus-dynamic one-sided 95% upper bound of `0.131` points.  All mechanism,
+query, cost, memory, provenance, split, and endpoint-isolation checks pass.
+The strict reviewer score is therefore 7/10 and the narrow accept claim is now
+active: somato-dendritic innovation is load-bearing and robust on a standard
+ResNet-20 with an inherited zero-query reciprocal credit path.
+
+The paper must still attribute reciprocal KP plasticity to prior work, count
+the paired neutral microphase and elementwise work, and retain the failed
+arbitrary-top-down, desired-velocity, online-control, and earlier unstable
+branches.  D4 alone cannot support positive added-depth utility.  The next
+paper-changing gate is oral-B R1/R2; only its separately frozen confirmation
+can raise 7 to 8 and unlock the standard ResNet-20/32/56 oral-A panel.
