2Authored explanation

The attempt reconstructed the thesis's finite Up-and-Down idea using exact prefix sums. It used ascending priority \(0,1,2,3\), descending priority \(3,2,1,0\), a failure threshold of 1,209, a retreat of 100 letters, and checkpoints every 10,000 letters. The stopping rule was target length 1,000,000 or 10,000,000,000 tested candidate letters.

The run reached its target after 2,480,028 tests, 1,271,032 rejected candidates, 208,996 recorded backtracks, and 1,097 direction changes. Construction plus the internal quadratic scan took 180.38 wall seconds. A separate checker took 102.68 wall seconds and accepted the same word. A 250,000-letter calibration run used 617,607 tests and produced digest `c9e5f13458e3bec984fc37f91541edc8a9b0fff78e47d9949626aa0f15a95520`.

The million-letter execution is a separate deterministic construction. It agrees with the 250,000-letter execution for the first 249,900 symbols, then changes because the longer run retreats 100 symbols at the 250,000 checkpoint.
