C.2.8:5.3 - An observer with a two-statement budget

Let E describe edges A→B, B→C, A→D and D→C. Form P1 lists them in that order. Form P2 lists A→B, A→D, B→C, D→C. Observer O reads the first two edge statements and returns every two-edge path supported by those edges. Select the paths A→B→C and A→D→C as the structural denominator.

P1 gives O the edges needed for A→B→C; P2 gives two edges leaving A and no complete selected path. Under the declared count, the results are 1 and 0 out of two selected paths. With four statement reads, the same procedure recovers both paths from both forms.

This result follows from the stated algorithm and budget. It is neither a human-comprehension observation nor a Finzi estimate. It shows one characteristic applied to the same expressed claims under a precisely bounded computational observation.
