Binomial carry defers the first pair when three equal ranks are pending · case 02

The bounded binomial carry certificate reports an incorrect link now.

Member previewVariant 2 · 3 implementations · 7 checks per implementation

Case contract

A consolidation cursor sees ordered ranks and index i. Report whether to link now, current rank, carry rank, suffix retained after a link, triple-collision deferral, and link partner. In three equal consecutive ranks defer the first pair so a carry is not consolidated twice out of order. Empty cursor is allowed.

Why this case matters

This isolates an internal heap representation or priority-structure invariant using deterministic finite records.

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
