Three refusals became verbs

[tannevaled]

divide-pages, remove-blank-pages and repair-pdf are claimed.

covered       76
not covered   38
parity       66.7% (76/114), every claim verified

⛔ Writing down why a thing cannot be claimed is what got it built

Each of the first two sat in this table as not covered, with its reason —
and each time the reason turned out to be the specification:

was written here	became
"Poster MAGNIFIES; divide-pages cuts a page into halves that stay half-size"	go-pdfkit/ops Divide + pdfops divide
"it needs a blank DETECTOR over rendered pixels, and a detector is a measurement, not a wiring job"	BlankPages/DropBlank + pdfops deblank
"no single entry point does the job" (yesterday)	DuplexCollate + pdfops duplex

Three in two days. That is an argument for the practice, not just for the
entries.

The detector's measurement changed its own design: the default resolution moved
from 50 DPI to 150, because on A4 at 50 an eight-point full stop covers
exactly one pixel — the same mark a speck of dust makes — so no threshold at
that resolution can tell punctuation from dirt.

repair-pdf is reader's repair, given a name

The claim is the verb, not reader's symbol. The repair itself was always
there and silent: every ops verb has been repairing files for as long as
reader has, so a claim on the symbol would have been true and useless. What
this table can now show is a tool that says so and keeps the result.

⛔ compare-pdfs is not claimed, and the reason is kept

conformance/compare already renders two pages, reduces both to grey, blurs
them and counts the pixels that differ — which is the measurement that tool
needs. But it compares our drawing against poppler's, to judge us; it needs
poppler installed; and it pairs page i with page i rather than
"intelligently". A claim on it would be a claim that we can diff two files a
caller brings, and we cannot. Generalising it is real work, not a table entry.
