q: The specific number demanded, the count of mission-by-subsystem overlap cells in strata holding both a heritage-rich and heritage-poor subsystem at comparable parts-class and test-fidelity, plus the per-stratum heritage variance, is not present in any retrieved source. Without that figure from the candidate's own assembled frame, retrieval cannot settle whether the heritage coefficient is identified off real within-stratum contrast or is silent extrapolation (a reshuffling of controls). The candidate must produce the overlap-cell tabulation.

q: RD design demand unanswered. The candidate's archive contains ZERO occurrences of 'discontinuity', 'running variable', 'bandwidth', 'bunching', 'McCrary', or 'regression discontinuity'. Mission risk classification (A-D) and prominence/mass tiers are used only as covariate controls, never as a running variable with a threshold-assigned rigor regime. The records do not identify a running variable, do not count mission-by-subsystem cells in a usable bandwidth around any cutoff, and run no manipulation/bunching test for programs just below a classification cutoff. The candidate cannot, from current records, exploit the threshold-assigned variation in rigor as an RD design, nor justify discarding it; the panelist's claim that an RD sits latent in the parts-control / I&T records is not engaged anywhere in the dissertation. REFUSE: no source in the candidate's corpus settles this; asserting an RD design would be confabulation.

The candidate's study is pre-registered and unexecuted (8.4.1), the JPL parts-stress/waiver and anomaly archives were not retrieved this turn, and the space corpora (AMOS, ACTA) returned zero hits for heritage-driven test-scope reduction. The empirical existence-claim cannot be asserted from evidence in hand.

q: REFUSED on the affirmative empirical claim. The grounded retrieval supports the conceptual frame: Forrester's systems-dynamics review lens demands the candidate 'reproduce the trouble using only the system's internal feedback structure, with no exogenous shock,' and treats shared program state as a stock whose flows co-emit downstream choices. But no retrieved source reports the partial-correlation matrix, the within-stratum regression of regressors on a PDR-pressure proxy, or the surviving independent variance for THIS candidate's assembled JPL archive. The space corpora (AMOS, ACTA, Space Economy) returned zero hits on heritage/parts/test-fidelity confounding by schedule-cost pressure, and OpenAlex gap-fill returned only off-topic works. Whether residualized variance survives is a property of the candidate's dataset, which retrieval cannot inspect; asserting a number would be confabulation. The objection is structurally valid and the candidate must run the residualization-then-partial-correlation test; the result is unknown from any source retrieved this turn.

q: REFUSED on the affirmative empirical claim. The retrieval grounds the mechanism that motivates the objection: Forrester's data-generating rule can itself be a stock that outcomes update (Industrial Dynamics 1961; Counterintuitive Behavior of Social Systems, 1971, doi:10.1007/bf00148991), and his explicit endogeneity test asks whether trouble can be reproduced from internal feedback without an external shock. That establishes the objection is well-posed in systems-dynamics terms. But no retrieved source dates this candidate's per-subsystem heritage coding, documents the standing heritage-caution posture time series, or reports a Granger test of coded heritage depth on lagged lineage failures. AMOS and ACTA returned zero hits on heritage endogeneity / cross-mission learning in a hazard model. Whether the archive carries the timestamps to run the test, and what the test would show, is unknown from any source retrieved this turn; asserting endogeneity-confirmed or -refuted would be fabrication.

q: REFUSED on the affirmative empirical claim. The retrieval strongly grounds the conceptual machinery: Forrester's stocks/flows formalism treats assurance hours as a depletable stock changed only through flows, and his shared-finite-resource framing (the orbital-commons analogues in the dossier: monopolistic competition in limited orbital space, doi:10.1007/s10640-025-00959-1; capacity-vs-traffic management, doi:10.1016/j.actaastro.2025.01.069) is the same structure: one actor's draw on a finite shared stock imposes an uncompensated cost on siblings, a balancing loop that couples decisions for allocation reasons rather than article reliability. That makes the SUTVA objection more than contamination: it is a within-mission negative-coupling loop on a shared stock. But no retrieved source measures THIS candidate's mission assurance-hour stock, the per-subsystem draw, or the depression of a subsystem's test-fidelity when a sibling's heritage claim is deep. AMOS returned zero hits on assurance-budget allocation across subsystems; Space Economy returned zero on the shared-resource test-fidelity tradeoff. Whether the I&T as-run records resolve assurance hours to the subsystem cell, and what the allocation test would reveal, is unknown from any source retrieved this turn.

q: The JPL-data-specific empirical results these questions demand were NOT retrievable this turn. AMOS and ACTA returned zero on heritage/reliability/bathtub/survivorship queries (those corpora are SSA/SDA/astrodynamics, not spacecraft-reliability-engineering), and no JPL heritage-assessment matrices, flight logs, or launch-manifest reporting-probability records were available. Consequently three sub-claims remain unsettled and are asserted only as required tests, not findings: (Q1) whether age-since-last-flight actually dominates the heritage rung in the JPL cells; (Q2) whether the documentation/reporting probability is empirically a decreasing function of heritage depth after conditioning on early failure, and whether the candidate's IPW actually opens that loop versus reweighting within it; (Q3) whether heritage's measured advantage empirically localizes to one timescale in the JPL records.

Because the dataset is unassembled, the denominator currently IS the subset the three archives co-document, which is precisely the failure McDowell's question is designed to expose. No retrieved source supplies these numbers, so no count can be asserted.

If the heritage-rich flagships are the survivors, the IPW weights are an extrapolation from a catalog the candidate has not independently verified, and no retrieved source closes this. The candidate's sensitivity analysis over bounded assumptions for undocumented cells is a partial mitigation, not the requested identifiability demonstration, and it too is unexecuted.

The candidate accepts severity truncation as acceptable rather than measuring whether reporting completeness itself varies with prominence; if it does, reporting intensity is confounded with prominence and with heritage, and the failure 'measurement' is partly a documentation artifact. No retrieved source supplies the prominence-by-reporting-rate gradient, so the differential-reporting threat to the outcome side stands unrebutted on this round.

q: The declared-versus-as-built heritage discrepancy rate, the share of mission-by-subsystem cells where a board's declared same-environment flight heritage is contradicted by the as-built parts lots, fabrication supplier, or prior-flight environment match, is NOT present in any retrieved source. The dissertation conceptually concedes the gap (a heritage label can attach to a design rebuilt with different parts lots, modified for a new environment, integrated by a different team, or tested less; 'same as before' can be true at the block-diagram level and false at the parts-list and test-matrix level) and operationalizes a PARTIAL hedge by coding the top heritage level against the prior flight's orbit and radiation environment (Sec 4.3.3) plus a stricter same-environment re-coding robustness check. But that codes the DECLARED environment match more strictly; it is not an independent reconciliation of the declared label against the as-built record. Heritage is coded from the design-review heritage assessment matrix (the operator claim), and the as-built JPL parts-lot / supplier records are access-controlled and not yet assembled, so no discrepancy rate exists to retrieve. Until the candidate reconciles declared heritage against the as-built record and reports the contradiction rate, the heritage regressor remains, in McDowell's terms, the unverified operator claim, and whether H0/H1 is about provenance at all cannot be settled from retrieval.

q: The DATA half of Q1 cannot be answered. Pearl demands the candidate state, from the archives, which conditional-independence implication of the declared graph holds and thereby licenses 'mediator artifact' vs 'genuine spuriousness.' But the dissertation explicitly states (Ch.6 synthesis, Ch.7) that results are 'expected directions and illustrative magnitudes, clearly labeled as not yet executed on the full assembled dataset; the contribution is the pre-registered specification, not estimated coefficients.' No heritage->parts-class and heritage->test-fidelity arrow evidence has been estimated, so no conditional-independence implication can be reported as holding or failing. The candidate must (a) draw and freeze ONE DAG and (b) pre-register the specific d-separation test (e.g., heritage independent of failure given the full mediator set under the mediator graph vs not under the confounder graph) before assembly, and report it on the assembled LLIS/NTRS/JPL data. Until then the headline b1-attenuation test is non-identified as stated.

q: The DATA half of Q2 cannot be answered. Pearl demands the through-channel vs around-channel SHARE of heritage's failure association and a commitment to full vs partial mediation from the mission-by-subsystem linkage. The dissertation is a design-stage plan with no assembled dataset and no estimated coefficients (stated explicitly in Ch.6/Ch.7), so no mediation decomposition exists to report a share. Worse, the candidate cannot currently claim front-door identification even in principle, because front-door requires that the mediator set be UNCONFOUNDED with the outcome given measured covariates -- and 'program competence' plausibly confounds the mediator->failure leg too, which would void front-door as well. The candidate must (a) commit to full or partial mediation as a pre-registered structural assumption, (b) state whether front-door's mediator-outcome unconfoundedness is defensible against program competence, and (c) report the channel-share decomposition on the assembled data. None is available pre-assembly.

q: The DATA half of Q3 cannot be answered. Pearl demands the specific conditional-independence test the candidate WILL run in the LLIS/NTRS/JPL data and the observed independence that would falsify the mediator reading. The methodology of the right test is grounded (claim c3: a d-separation/descendant test of whether heritage predicts parts-class and test-fidelity), but the candidate has assembled no dataset, so no independence can be reported as observed or refuted -- the design itself states the data is 'not yet executed on the full assembled dataset.' The candidate must pre-register, before assembly: (1) the frozen DAG with directed edges; (2) the exact conditional-independence implication chosen as the licensing test (heritage-vs-mediator association as the descendant test; heritage-failure association conditioned on the intermediate set as the path-blocking test); (3) the decision rule mapping the observed independence to the mediator vs confounder reading. Absent the assembled data none of these is reportable, and the overlap/balance machinery in Ch.5-6 does not substitute for it.

The dissertation states the mission-by-subsystem frame is 'still being assembled' and that 'No estimated coefficient is presented as a finding anywhere in the document' (lines 173/345/844). Until the frame is assembled and the cross-tabulation computed, the manipulability-of-heritage question is unresolved: the design CONCEDES the top heritage category is definitionally bundled with parts and qualification and offers only a robustness re-coding, not a demonstration of a non-empty off-diagonal.

The design is built to permit this test (provenance-at-design-review rule; as-procured/as-planned coding; pre-registered documentation-probability model) and concedes the unobservables channel is only 'moderate', but it reports no recoverability share and no pre-launch-only contrast, because the launch-manifest frame is unassembled (lines 173/345/844).
