# Safe Homepage Snippet Working title: `A Depth-3 Buchstab Minorant Map for Binary Goldbach` Short status line: > Research map / open problem. Not a proof of Goldbach. Short public summary: > We isolate a depth-3 Buchstab minorant route for binary Goldbach and identify the remaining analytic wall as a one-`R`-match variance wall inside the Type-III shifted-prime surface. The documented local pivots do not remove that obstruction. Safe call for review: > The useful expert question is whether this one-`R`-match variance wall is structural in the depth-3 Buchstab architecture, or whether a pre-L2 identity changes the variance object before signs are lost. Do not say: - Goldbach is solved. - Goldbach is almost solved. - Existing product-congruence estimates already close the gap. - The Type-III residual shearing estimate is proved in the present notes.
