Status table for the Gap-2 reason census on gauge counting. It records which candidate premises force, underdetermine, or block the Gauge Counting Principle (inverse gauge-volume mass on labeled orbits). Gravity and QG workers closing the measure obligation cite it to see which routes are dead. The module is a finite table of reason statuses backed by short supporting lemmas.

claimA finite census table of reasons $R_{01}$–$R_{11}$ whose entries record the logical status of each candidate path toward the Gauge Counting Principle: that the path-sum class mass equals the inverse order of the sector relabeling group (equivalently, inverse gauge volume on labeled orbits), under recognition-ledger structure rather than an external model premise.

background

Gap 2 in the SevenGaps gravity stack asks whether recognition-ledger structure forces the Gauge Counting Principle: class mass $\mu(K)=1/|\mathrm{Aut},K|$, equivalently inverse gauge volume on labeled orbit copies. Upstream modules reduce residual freedom of the path-sum measure to three positive constants (size-blind weight times one fugacity per index type) and isolate unit-sector fugacity as the remaining hypothesis.

Candidate routes include reading the measure off site symmetry of the ledger, imposing insertion stationarity or a gluing law, pinning counts or weights by hand, and dual-entry signed-source enrichment in 4D. Several of those shapes are already no-gos: site symmetry cannot supply gauge counting; uniform measures fail; pinned counts and weights are complex rather than forced.

This module does not re-derive those results. It indexes them as a reason census with an explicit status table so the open measure obligation can be audited without reopening closed branches.

proof idea

Definition-and-status module, not a single theorem proof. It introduces a ReasonStatus classification and a finite reasonTable whose length is checked, then attaches one short lemma per census row (R01 invariance underdetermines; R02 equivalence of GCP with gauge-orbit mass; R03 that gauge-orbit mass satisfies the target; R04 uniform fails; R05–R06 pinned count/weights are complex; R07 unique Gibbs form of invariant enrichment; R09 existence of label-asymmetric data; R11 orbit–stabilizer bookkeeping). Each row is a thin wrapper or citation into the imported Gap2 and enrichment modules rather than a fresh derivation.

why it matters in Recognition Science

The SevenGaps program needs a load-bearing recognition-substrate premise for GaugeCountingPrinciple, or a scoped no-go naming what is missing. This census is the audit surface for that obligation: it aggregates the Gap2 posting/gluing, gauge-volume, insertion-dynamics, ledger-site-blindness, size-blindness, and dual-entry enrichment lines into one status table.

Downstream consumers (none linked yet in the graph) would use the table to avoid re-proving dead routes and to focus on residual open reasons. In framework terms it sits under the gravity measure stack that must eventually match RS-native constants and the forced $D=3$, eight-tick structure, without smuggling external gauge-fixing axioms. It closes bookkeeping, not the Gap-2 theorem itself.
