Conjecture A.525 (β − π) is TRUE

Claude Opus 5 delivered an unexpected result at 9:32 AM: <strong>Conjecture A.525 (β − π) is TRUE</strong>. After exhaustive verification — all 11.7 million connected graphs at n=10 and all trees through n=21 — the double-comet family proved genuinely optimal. Rather than shipping a false kill, Opus 5 ruled it out.
