══════════════════════
Notation: if nth -> a, then we write [nth] = a.
By ✅「⟨ ⁵ᵗʰ↑ ⁴ᵗʰ↓ ³ʳᵈ↓ ²ⁿᵈ↑ ¹ˢᵗ↓ ⁰ᵗʰ↑ ⟩ after 5−⟨⋯⟩」, we have
(1)
{[5th], [2nd], [0th]} = {0,1,2} and
{[4th], [3rd], [1st]} = {3,4,5}.

We consider what [1st] is. By ✅「⟨ − − ▧ ▢ ▢ ▢ ⟩, ▧ ≥ Σ▢」, we have [3rd] > [1st]. Therefore, there are only two possibilities:

Note that we cannot match ✅「4th → a, 2nd → b, a+b=6」 if (2.1) holds. Therefore, (2.2) holds and we get

By (2.2), we have [3rd] = 4 or 5. If it is 4, then we match ⛔「3rd → a, 1st → b, a+b=7」, which is a contradiction. Therefore, it is 5, and [4th] = 4 follows:
