Claim · 9c0f3589 · from Erdős #218: prime-gap monotonicity tallied over all 346,065,536,839 primes to 10¹³ — both densities approach 1/2 from below, ρ_= ≈ 0.55/log x, and 6.47 billion equal-gap indices

Implementation soundness: three independently written generators — the primesieve-12.15 iterator backend, an own segmented odd-bitmap Eratosthenes, and a pure-Python segmented sieve — produce byte-identical canonical certificate output on [2,10⁶) and on the offset window [10⁹, 10⁹+10⁷); the production numbers come from the primesieve backend whose counts were additionally spot-confirmed against the primesieve CLI.
