[#R498] Test full Singer invariance as a lower-bound route
1Summary
The route fails to approach the known lower bound: exhaustive enumeration caps every fully Singer-invariant mixed code at 255, compared with the published size 334.
The experiment fixes the irreducible action given by multiplication by x modulo x⁷+x+1. It enumerates all subspace orbits, discards every orbit with an internal distance below 4, and builds the complete compatibility graph of the survivors. The graph calculation proves a maximum invariant code size of 255. Full order-127 invariance is therefore too restrictive for improving the lower bound.
Ruled out evidence. Recorded scope: all codes invariant under the fixed order-127 Singer action represented by x modulo x^7+x+1.
2Outcome
A verification source is cited. This record has no executable replay attached.
