Of the 369 Doxa groups with nothing in their language, 94 had no bridge either,
and 93 of those were Deaf — 17.5 million people, the largest untouched number on
the map. That was structural, not bad luck: every bridge here is a spoken
language widely used in the same country, and a spoken bridge is worthless to a
Deaf community, so the build correctly refused to offer one and then had nothing
else to say.
SUN is a signed language built to be learnt across sign languages, with the Old
Testament, New Testament and Bible stories in it. It is carried the way a spoken
bridge is — something to learn, no substitute for Scripture in a group's own
sign language — in its own columns, never folded into the access rung, which
stays the honest "nothing found in their language". 28 countries where it is
already being taught come with the named local Deaf church or organisation
doing the teaching, which is the difference between a resource and a lead.
Only URLs verified by their content ship. sun.bible answers 200 for
/sun/<anything> and /resource/<anything>, so a per-language URL built by pattern
would look valid and could be empty; the fetcher re-measures that catch-all on
every run rather than trusting a note. Hosts left out are listed with the reason,
including three that are reachable by a person but not by a script.
Doctrine was checked harder here, not less. The Deaf are the most heavily
targeted group in this dataset by publishers this build must never carry, and
the thinner the pickings the stronger the pull. SUN is Wycliffe Associates'.
Screening the result exposed the bigger hole. The doctrine scan read the pin
index only, and within it skipped the Words of Life and Scripture Earth fields,
so the access table — the one the page renders and the one exported to CSV for
posters and QR codes — was never screened at all. The least supervised links in
the build were the ones most likely to be printed and handed to a stranger.
Scanning both, and both fully, takes the screened count from 6,497 to 16,960.
The gate also now proves the server holds these tables. It adopted a server from
another worktree on the default port and reported PASS on it: all three
manifests are byte-identical, because a manifest describes bundles and the
change was to a data asset it never mentions. A planted excluded-publisher link
went undetected, which is the worst possible failure for this particular check.
