# Tier2 Candidate Row Families (2026-04-21)

This note preserves the concrete row-family evidence behind the current Tier-2 queue head, so the
short queue can stay focused on the owner question rather than restating export details.

## Checked Export

- `artifacts/exports/rt3-1.06/candidate-table-named-runs.json`

The export now keeps the row-family split explicit instead of burying it only inside per-map
samples:

- `files_with_port01_11_run_at_45_55_count = 37`
- `files_with_warehouse01_11_run_at_56_66_count = 37`
- `port00_warehouse00_row_pair_map_counts`
  - `35/43 -> 30`
  - `10/18 -> 7`
- `numbered_port_warehouse_trailer_family_map_counts`
  - `0x00000001 -> 28`
  - `0x00000000 -> 9`
- `row_pair_and_numbered_trailer_family_map_counts`
  - `35/43 :: 0x00000001 -> 25`
  - `35/43 :: 0x00000000 -> 5`
  - `10/18 :: 0x00000000 -> 4`
  - `10/18 :: 0x00000001 -> 3`

## Off-Row Carrier Maps

The earlier `10/18` family is narrow and fully enumerated in the checked export:

- `Crossing the Alps.gmp`
- `East Coast, USA.gmp`
- `Germany.gmp`
- `Go West!.gmp`
- `Rhodes Unfinished.gmp`
- `State of Germany.gmp`
- `War Effort.gmp`

Everything else in the current probe-bearing corpus keeps the `35/43` `Port00` / `Warehouse00`
pair while still preserving the fixed numbered runs at `45..55` and `56..66`.

## Crossover Reading

The new crossover field keeps the row-family and trailer-family interaction explicit too:

- the dominant family is still the ordinary `35/43 :: 0x00000001` case on `25` maps
- the off-row `10/18` family stays mixed, splitting `4` maps on trailer `0x00000000` and `3`
  maps on trailer `0x00000001`
- the ordinary `35/43` family is mixed too, with a smaller `5`-map `0x00000000` subset

So the row shift and numbered trailer split do not collapse to one underlying map family.

## Immediate Reading

This keeps the Tier-2 frontier narrower than a generic “candidate table varies by scenario” claim:

- the `Port01..11` / `Warehouse01..11` numbered families are structurally fixed across all `37`
  probe-bearing maps
- only the `00` pair moves, and it does so in one small `7`-map family
- the numbered trailer split stays mixed across both row-pair families instead of collapsing to
  the off-row subset, so the next owner question is still the earlier seed or projection seam
  that feeds nonzero `[candidate+0xba/+0xbb]` into `0x00412d70`, not the mere existence of the
  stable named rows themselves
