  • Conjecture Cook's (2011) Menger-slice code cuts along the normal (1, 1, 0.5), not the centroid diagonal, so the base-3 diagonal cut is not Cook's slice; the reference row scoring the cut as Cook's is kept at yes with that correction recorded beside it, and the row once scored yes in error now reads no.
  • Conjecture The published Menger-slice listing sets normal = (1, 1, 0.5) while its prose runs the normal to (1, 1, 1), so the published plane is not the centroid diagonal; the reference row's yes and no scoring lives in REFS.md. Witness: spectra.md WHAT IS KNOWN.
