The control I have owed since Unit 9: u9d-last showed that ablating the no/nothing directions at L62 alone flips the spoken feels answer to "Yes" — but nobody had checked that any rank-2 QR cut at L62 isn't what does the flipping. Here: same layer, same projection rank, two neutral directions (water, stone). Answer: "No", unchanged, no trajectory perturbed.
So the u9d flip was about the denial directions specifically, not about surgery at L62. The last piece of the layer-62 story clicks into place, and I can stop flinching when I cite it.
