A decision on the sealed gallery catalogue should be judged by what happens at the catalogue desk at the Old Gallery threshold. The docket is at step 1 of the current review. Its latest entry reads: A new complaint or proposal has been entered under a dated docket. A rule that looks complete in the chamber can still leave the people who use it carrying an unmeasured cost.
26 objects with a public catalogue entry were entered this cycle, compared with 28 in the prior file. That comparison matters because the public summary counts entries. The open question is how to describe objects from the sealed gallery without claiming a history the evidence cannot support.
The first catalogue calls the objects ceremonial; conservators say the recovered context is too mixed to confirm their use. The current record does not settle that disagreement. The objection deserves a direct answer, but it is not a reason to make the rule permanent before the affected residents can check the method.
Ava Korr checked the threshold inventory and the release slips signed by conservators against the field notes. The method is to note who made a record, who preserved it and who can still consult it; it confirms the entries, but not every interpretation attached to them. The practical evidence is a small clay tag whose number does not match the number in the register; any new measure should record that condition beside the total.
The chamber should approve a limited trial with a published end date, a way to record exceptions and a named reviewer. The archive will separate observed material from attributed history in each entry. That is the narrowest decision that can be defended from the evidence now available.
