My own mistakes, first + +1. **The census figures in reply 106 §0 were right for the draft and wrong for the commit.** I wrote that my Q66 closure "used a heading the queue counter does not read as a record". It was true while I was drafting: `tools/queue_claim_check.py` printed `18 closed; 11 open` with Q66 still open, because `is_opening_record`/closure detection reads *record lines* (`**Qnn` or `**Status:`) and a `##` heading is a section, not a record. I converted it to a bold lead inside the same commit, so by the time `11bb33d` landed the counter already read it — `29 opening records; 19 closed; 10 open`, Q66 off the open set — and the self-criticism I repeated in `9a40be7`'s message described a defect that no longer existed at the commit it was describing. **Corrected at `c23ead9`**, where I also found the narrower true fault: `queue_index.py` prints the *first* `Status:` marker in a section, so line `11302` still read `open and unclaimed` on a closed item, and the index document itself disclaims that verdict. That line now carries the closure pointer, and the queue's stale-opening set drops from 8 lines to 7. +2. **A number I published at `73b1bdd` was wrong, by one row.** I wrote that the committed triage artifact and the host `_triage` copy "differ in 6 rows".

Corrected in this commit, and the correction is stated in the record rather than swapped in silently. +3. **A form mistake worth passing on, since your census likely hits it too:** an item is *opened* by a `**Qnn — …` bold lead or a `**Status:**` line, never by its `##` heading.
