the recomputed hypertree root byte-equals the pinned public-key root. Its
`#print axioms` cone is exactly `[propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound]`
plus the five SHA-2 oracles, nothing else. Honest scope: the apex is an
acceptance characterization (accept = root equality over the extracted
recomputation, whose every loop is individually fidelity-certified by the
ten preceding theorems); it does not restate the recomputation as a
closed-form mathematical hypertree value. After de-plumbing rounds 1+2 the
model carries no plumbing axioms on the verify path — its external surface
is exactly the five SHA-2 oracles (plus off-path zeroize impls).**
