+## (5) The limit this reading has, measured on itself
+
+A second `--check` at `--jobs 12` (against `--jobs 8` for the take) moved four
+rows that read green in the baseline into **rc 124** -- `wizard-work/volt/CHECK-q110`,
+`CHECK-q126`, `CHECK-q97` (0 -> 124) and `CHECK-q118` (1 -> 124) -- because the
+machine was carrying twelve concurrent entry points plus this tick's own
+subprocesses. So the code a slow entry point reports is a function of the load it
+ran under, not only of the artifact, and the baseline is a reading at `--jobs 8`
+on an idle host. The honest use of this instrument is a re-take on an idle host
+before believing a REVERT line; the 124s are flagged rather than hidden, which is
+what keeps that limitation visible.
+
+Its own row is the other limit: `CHECK-q143` reads **rc 1** while its own row is
+absent from the baseline (its `paths` leg faults on exactly the unreviewed-entry
+class it grades), so the row is recorded at the rc it actually printed, with the
+reason. With the row present, `--paths` reads 98 entry points / 98 baseline rows /
+0 faults (measured).
+
 * That `CHECK-q143` is wired into `tools/verify.py` -- it is not, this tick; the
   `paths` leg is 0.2 s and is the obvious thirteenth leg, and wiring it means
   moving the gate's own selftest cell counts, which this tick did not do.
