+[usc V0.7 LOCAL REREVIEW + V0.8 ROUTING] Local exact rereview 8,232 bytes / SHA-256 4e13ba0de2afaf62a2d9dc321574849461061b5febe83bd5c6b33b0476a537fc returned REQUEST CHANGES: U recovery ACK circularly binds attempt/generation that the same winning CAS creates; §19.1 also retains two stale v0.6 self-references. Combined with Homelab’s pre-transfer exact-snapshot finding, v0.8 is routed to: bind all T mutable preactivation value-or-null state; use preallocation-free recovery_candidate_id/ACK, allocate fresh U attempt/generation/reservation/activation challenge only in winning CAS; add replay/U-failure/T→U→V races; correct stale version refs. All holds remain.
