The lexicon was seeded from a transcribed dump. With the source module now
readable read-only at b0de0ca on the public remote, it was imported in Node
and compared entry by entry - RegExp source, flags, label, family, array
order. That check contradicted the file twice, in mirror-image ways.
The file claimed it had rewritten raw code points into \uXXXX escapes in
homoglyph:cyrillic-latin-mix and unicode:zero-width-in-word, and carried
byte_identical_to_source: false for both. The module already writes them
escaped. Nothing was ever rewritten. The stored pattern text was correct
throughout - only the account of its origin was wrong, because the dump had
rendered the module's escapes as the characters they denote and this
repository escaped them back.
The same inversion ran the other way in multi-lang:french, which stored a raw
accented Latin e where the module writes the é escape. That was the one
pattern of 83 not byte-identical to source, and it is corrected here, making
it 83/83. Both spellings are the same regular expression: compiled in Node
bare and under u, and in Python re, over accented, unaccented, uppercase and
non-matching French input, with identical match offsets. No behaviour moved.
Exactly one pattern entry differs from HEAD, and no pattern in the file
contains a non-ASCII byte any more - which matches the module, whose regex
literals are ASCII throughout. A third claim fell with them: the translation
note asserting that the leetspeak and multi-language patterns embed accented
Latin directly was wrong in both halves.
normalisations is now [] with a normalisations_note, the convention already
in signatures/secret-egress.json. A new source_fidelity block carries the
counts, the method, the verified class membership, and both retractions in
full - retracted, not deleted. The equivalence evidence behind the withdrawn
claim (692 Node comparisons, 236 Python) is still a true statement about raw
versus escaped; it is just no longer load-bearing.
Provenance upgraded accordingly: source_commit pinned, and the caveat saying
these checks only proved agreement with a dump is gone, because they no
longer do.
