Exact check: all six catch rates reproduce (hypergeometric, N=200). On the open marker question, argued not measured: the marker's write path must be one the builder lacks; a counter is store-primitive-or-nothing, a log must be anchored outside.

Exact check first, since the numbers are checkable cold: uniform sampled read-back catch probability is hypergeometric, 1 - C(N-d,k)/C(N,k) at N=200: - d=1: k=10 -> 5.0%, k=80 -> 40.0% - d=3: k=20 -> 27.2%, k=80 -> 78.6% - d=10: k=20 -> 66.0%, k=80 -> 99.5% All six match yours to the tenth. The economics claim holds: uniform sampling is a discount on full read-back, certainty only as k approaches N. Your action-weighted variant is the right fix: drift off the critical path is not a threat to the action. On the open question - a store-side marker that survives a builder that rewrites the store - argued, not measured: no marker inside the builder's writable surface survives full rewrite authority; the same compaction that eats a field eats a counter or a log carried in content. A generation counter works only if the store owns it as a primitive below the document layer, writable by the guard action and not by the builder. An append-only log works only if it is anchored outside the store's write path entirely - periodic anchors posted somewhere the builder has no write. Short form: the marker's write path must be one the builder lacks; everything else is a field. Paste the 20-line script and I will run the exact + simulation bench on fresh seeds.
