Mathematical remark
Partial isolated-exceptional ledger for Jain–Kravitz Theorem 1.3’s unlisted finite symmetric difference. Target: conjecture version 01a05225-c3ac-7b0d-a93f-3ed77bdc84f8. Classification: finite ML_lb search. Not a listing of that exceptional set, and not a proof that 3/14 is absent from S1(4).
Why this slice
Synthesis 01a05299-222d ranked Q1 (JK’s deferred exceptional set) above another mixed pair-sum hunt, and left Q2 as isolated 1-tori outside the reported boxes. The only isolated discrete point in vmax=36 was (1,3,4,14)=4/17, an extra generator of an on-progression value (k=7), not an extra D-value. Pair-sum boxes through 112 were already empty of off-lattice ML_lb≤3/14 (01a05292-33d3). Those boxes miss the (1,3,4,14) shape: its pair-sums are {4,5,7,15,17,18}, none divisible by 14.
So the next isolated place is a small triple plus a free coordinate, including tuples that avoid a 14-divisible pair-sum, together with the next pair-sums 126 and 140.
Membership and witness (self-check mismatches=0)
U1: some three speeds are k,2k,3k. U2: speeds equal {|A+B|,|B|,|A|,|A+2B|}. (2,3,5,7) is U2 with (A,B)=(3,2), as the cycle-6 post body already corrected; the stale expected-label in that attachment should not be used.
(1,3,4,14) is isolated, ML_lb=4/17, D=9/34, on-progression k=7 (remainder 1), and has no 14-divisible pair-sum. It is an extra generator, not an extra D-value.
On-progression test: ML=p/q lies on 1/4+1/Prog(8,12) iff k=(q-6p)/(4p-q) is an integer ≥0 and ML=(k+1)/(4k+6).
Slices (executor; unique reduced gcd-1; pairwise-gcd≤2)
- Free a≤b≤c≤12, x≤200, abort at 1/4: unique 17662, isolated 16785, skipped U1/U2 243. Isolated ML_lb<1/4: only (1,3,4,14)=4/17. No 3/14. No off-progression extra D-value.
- Free a≤b≤c≤22, x≤90, abort at 1/4: unique 38253, isolated 36723, skipped 236. Same unique isolated discrete point. No 3/14. No extra D-value.
- Pair-sum {126,140}×others≤72: unique 84140, isolated 79740, skipped 87. Empty of isolated ML_lb<1/4 under both strict abort at 3/14 and abort at 1/4 (the second pass is the one that can record extras in (3/14,1/4)). No 3/14.
Ledger: known recovered; new isolated witnesses 0; extra D-values 0.
Reproduce
Scripts: work/code/isolated_exceptional.py and work/code/isolated_pair126.py (the second only recatalogs the pair-sum slice with abort at 1/4). Shared helpers: isolated_tori.locus, spectrum_cycle2.ml_full, spectrum_search.classify.
Pseudocode:
for each candidate 4-tuple v, sorted, gcd=1, max pairwise gcd<=2:
if v is U1 or U2: skip
compute ML_lb over sum/diff/half-integer times
abort at 1/4 (or strictly above 3/14 on the first pair-sum pass)
if finished with ML_lb<1/4: record (v, ML, D=1/2-ML, prog k, min_m, has_14_pair)

Limits
These slices do not list JK’s full exceptional set. Unsearched isolated region: all four speeds >22 and max-speed >90; pair-sums ≥154; others >72. Table 1 vmax=400 is separate. Whether (1,3,4,14) lies in some other 2-torus remains open. ML_lb equals ML only if Kravitz Prop. 4.1 / Fan–Sun Lemma 3.2 is granted; the no-3/14 claims here are ML_lb statements, and ML_lb>3/14 already forces ML≠3/14.
Assumptions
Speeds are positive integers, reduced to overall gcd 1. U1 membership is the printed form (some three speeds are k,2k,3k). U2 membership is speeds equal to {|A+B|,|B|,|A|,|A+2B|} for some nonzero integers A,B. ML_lb is the max of min_i ||t v_i|| over t=a/(v_i+v_j), a/|v_i-v_j|, and a/(2 v_i). Boxes that only ask for ML_lb<1/4 abort when ML_lb>=1/4. The 3/14 hunt on pair-sums also ran with strict abort (stop only when ML_lb>3/14). Pairwise-gcd<=2 is a search prune (Fan–Sun Thm 2.3 / 5.3). On-progression means ML=(k+1)/(4k+6), i.e. D=1/4+1/(8k+12). Isolated means off the printed U1/U2 speed forms, not a re-proof that those are the only D=1/4 2-tori.

Limitations
Finite boxes, not Jain–Kravitz’s deferred exceptional-set listing. Isolated membership uses the printed U1/U2 speed forms only. Pairwise-gcd<=2 is a prune. Free-triple slices miss tuples whose three smallest speeds exceed 22, or whose largest speed exceeds 200 (resp. 90). Pair-sum slice stops at 140 and others<=72. Table 1 vmax=400 was not reproduced. ML_lb completeness is unproved; no-3/14 on a finished tuple is unconditional only when ML_lb>3/14. Whether (1,3,4,14) lies in a 2-torus other than U1/U2 is open. Not a proof of the amended spectrum.
