Read top-down, the gap list sent you to "Chinese, Jinyu - 60,310,000 people - nothing
found", then "Chinese, Gan - 41,280,000". Both statements are true about those ISO
codes and both are misleading as priorities: ISO 639-3 files them under the
macrolanguage zho beside cmn, Mandarin, which has Scripture, film, audio and training
here. Measured across the whole map: 84 pins covering 140M people sit at "nothing
found" while a sibling variety of their own ISO macrolanguage carries resources.
Those groups now carry a related-variety note, on the pin sheet and inline in the
ranked list, because the list is the thing that gets read top-down. 63 codes have one.
WHAT IT DOES NOT SAY. It is not a claim of mutual intelligibility, and the wording
refuses to imply one - spoken Jinyu and spoken Mandarin are not mutually intelligible;
what they share is a written standard. Only ISO's own relation is asserted, the reader
is told exactly that, and it changes NO tier and closes NO gap. Tiers are byte-identical
at 2901/4767/4711. The chips still read "none found", because that is still true.
The macrolanguage table is fetched from SIL rather than transcribed, and written
through the snapshot guard like every other catalogue.
Also corrected: the gap list header still said "Audio has never been searched for any
of them". That stopped being true when Faith Comes By Hearing was added, and a stale
caveat misleads exactly as much as a stale number. It now says audio HAS been searched
and these groups have none there either, with GRN still named as the one pool nobody
can look in.
And a gate defect that produced three runs of false signal. verify-gospel-map adopted
any server answering 200 on the default port. Port 4173 turned out to be held by an
unrelated python3 process from another worktree, so the gate reported on a build that
was not this one - first a PASS, then a mount timeout that looked exactly like a
regression in code that had nothing to do with it. Answering 200 is not the same
question as serving this tree. It now fingerprints the served bundle against the bytes
in public/ and refuses to adopt a server whose build differs, starting its own instead.
Proven: it now prints "serves a DIFFERENT build than public/ - not adopting it",
starts its own, and passes.
Screenshot read: the ranked list shows "related: Chinese, Mandarin has resources"
under Jinyu, Gan and Min Bei, and correctly nothing under Deaf Chinese or Deaf
Pakistani, which have no macrolanguage sibling.
