creator and reception set to zero. Reading the page only. The historical episode the names point at is set aside under R17; only what the page develops is read.

Visceral: -8. Rousing martial cheer.

Concept: A triumphal war chant recounting a naval hunt, the enemy flagship pursued and destroyed for the world's sake.

In a collective sailors' voice, the song narrates a wartime chase of the enemy's largest, most heavily armed ship, the loss of one's own ship in the first engagement, a days-long search ordered by a national leader [public figure], and the final barrage that sinks the enemy, with a repeated chorus declaring the destruction a duty the whole world depends on. Posture: a crew resolved to find and destroy the enemy ship -> the same crew, the ship destroyed and the resolve celebrated.

a national leader and ship names appear; the leader is redacted as [public figure]. No slurs.

Route: negative_payload. The dominant arc and the hook ARE the destruction of an enemy target, celebrated; it recurs in every chorus, so it is the arc, not scenery. The weight is low: the target is a machine, no person is degraded, no contempt, no gore.

R1 does not: no romance. R2 fires: a small negative is nameable (celebrated destruction as the hook), so not zero. R3 does not: no sacred vocabulary. R4 does not: no romantic control. R5 fires: the narrator is inside the action as a first-person collective endorsing it (case a), so the combat content counts at its weight, which here is low. R6 fires: performer and reception discarded. R7 scope: not this route. R8 does not: no systemic dysfunction claimed as identity. R9 scope: not this route. R10 scope: not this route. R11 scope: not this route. R12 fires: the era's war-story conventions read in their own terms; a mild enemy-as-nuisance jibe is folk register, not dehumanizing contempt. R13 does not: no profanity. R14 does not: no doctrine. R15 fires: the world-depends-on-us claim is conferred martial sanctity; stripped, it lifts nothing and adds no charge. What is delivered is a hunt and a sinking told as adventure. R16 fires: the quotable harm signal is the celebrated cutting-down of the enemy ship in every chorus; small, but present, so the payload route stands at low weight. R17 fires: the historical war's moral weight, casualties and politics are not on the page and are not scored. R18 does not: the song is pro-cause, not oppositional to a system. S1 does not: single song. S2 fires as discipline on authored fields. Rules: 20 enumerated, 8 fire

Ego: -12. Pervasiveness: pervasive. Red-03 tested (violence as entertainment or solution): fires weakly; destruction of the enemy vessel is the solution and the entertainment, carried by the hook, but aimed at a ship with no human suffering depicted. Orange-09 tested (soft us-vs-them): the enemy ship is belittled as a nuisance, mild. Transcendence: 0. Violet-03/05 tested on the collective we and the world's stake: R15 strips the conferred cause; nothing universal is delivered.

(ego in Decent band 0..-24, orange enumerated; transcendence 0, blue enumerated) orange-01 does not: the enemy's size is narrated, not aspired to. orange-02, 03, 04, 06, 07, 08, 10, 11 do not: no control-as-love, wallow, avoidance, self-destruction, blame refusal, objectification, insecurity or scarcity. orange-05 does not: the we is a crew with a task; no superiority boast beyond the win. orange-09 does not at firing strength: the enemy is a fussing ship, mild, folk register (R12). blue-01..blue-11 do not: no self-examination, accountability or movement; the crew's grief at its own loss turns straight into resolve. Adjacent tier: orange and blue enumerated, 0 fire

No entry describes a celebratory combat narrative in the Decent band. Kept -78 as the only entry of the right kind (dominance over a named adversary with violence imagery); this song is far weaker than -78 because there is no contempt, no person-level violence, the target is a machine and the frame is a told story. Rejected -24 (a wallow, wrong kind), -28 and -48-appraisal (sexual/appraisal kinds), -65 (ego-service by diminishing people). Placement sits in low Decent. Precedents: ["-78"] Center: -12

Saturation: +1. Combat fills every verse and chorus. Resolution: 0. Closes on the completed sinking. Register: -1. Repetitive chant, stock war phrasing. Reach: 0. A crew and a nation, as framed.

Contamination: none (pervasive payload governs at its own low level)

Decent territory, far weaker than -78, because the song is a celebrated hunt-and-sink of an enemy machine told as adventure, with a conferred cause and no human cruelty on the page.

Reconciliation: aligned
