The separate gravitational endpoint

A gravitational endpoint additionally requires the late-time metric, dilaton, horizon diagnostics, and the regime in which they remain controlled. Neither Theorem thm:endpoint-continuity nor Proposition prop:residual-energy supplies these objects.

A surviving code-independent microscopic dressing can be compatible with information release. A surviving input-dependent sector cannot be omitted. Conversely, absence of an effective horizon does not establish complete microscopic release.
