ROOT CAUSE

The static analyzer mishandles reverse addresses: reverse-view projection loses the original element address order.

THE FAILURE

The static analyzer mishandles reverse addresses: reverse-view projection loses the original element address order.

Unsuccessful approach: The partial repair uses if set(d['reverse_actual'])!=set(d['reverse_expected']): errors.append('reverse-addresses'), which still violates the stipulated analysis contract.

Case contract

Validate static proof objects for splitting borrowed slices. Bounds are half-open; split point lies in 0..length; children exactly partition parent; exclusive children disjoint; every child retains parent owner and generation; dynamic indices need inequality proof; empty children confer no element access; strided loans include every enumerated element; reverse views retain original element addresses; consuming split removes parent exclusive capability. Input is a fully explicit descriptor of the stated toy IR. Return rule identifiers in declaration order; absent optional obligations use the provided neutral defaults. No rule is an assertion about a production language.

Why this case matters

A finite offline static-analysis model of ownership and borrowing; it does not execute the analyzed program.

HELD IN THE MEMBER ARCHIVE

The verified repair and its recorded checks are member-only.

This mechanism has 21 recorded checks per implementation. The open-access tier publishes the failure and the unsuccessful fix; the repaired source that passes every check, and the observations that prove it, are available to members.

Every case sharing this mechanism uses the same contract and the same repair, so this one record is held back for all of them.

Member access is invitation-based. Sign in with your invited account to inspect the repair.

Verification & scope

The explicitly stated toy language is the complete scope; this is not a production compiler or a claim about Rust semantics. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.

Observations recorded using Python 3.12.14 at 2026-09-29T14:44:05.615049+00:00.
