A stated candidate class or identification has been ruled out under explicit assumptions. checks assumptions, certificates, counterexamples and stopping rules.
Exact assertion
The central return −I preserves determinant orientation. It therefore cannot simply be renamed chirality or identified with a Pfaffian-sheet reversal. The negative result is productive: it tells the programme that orientation needs an independently odd datum.
A specified candidate class fails under explicit assumptions. The conclusion does not automatically extend to mechanisms outside that class.

Check the assumptions defining the ruled-out candidate class; the no-go does not automatically extend beyond that class.
checks assumptions, certificates, counterexamples and stopping rules.
Break one of the no-go assumptions in a controlled construction, or show that the alleged obstruction does not follow within its stated class.
