══════════════════════
Notation: if nth -> a, then we write [nth] = a.
By ✅「⟨ ³ʳᵈa ¹ˢᵗb ⟩, min⟦a,b⟧ = 2」, we have
(1) 0,1 ∈ {[5th], [4th], [0th]}.
Combining this with ✅「2nd|0th → 0」, we see that 0 = [0th]:

Then (1) implies 1 = [5th] or [4th]. If it is [4th], then we would match ⛔「median {p4, p2, p0} = 1」, which is not allowed. Therefore, 1 = [5th]:

Next, we consider ✅「⟨⋯ ᵃb ⋯⟩, ab=2+7n」. To match this pattern, the product "ab" can only be 2 or 9, and we need
(2) [1st] = 2 or [3rd] = 3.
Note that if [3rd] = 3, then we would match ⛔「{p4, p2, p1} = ? + {0,2,3}」, which is not allowed. Therefore
(3) [3rd] ≠ 3.
Combining this with (2), we have [1st] = 2:

By (3), we have 3 = [4th] or [2nd]. Given this, to avoid ⛔「Jump(3,4) = 1」, we need 4 = [3rd]:
