Authoritative stakes should be 17 and 16: gross 33, burn 1, distributable 32. I open at 20, leaving you 12 to clear. Your history of retreating from high anchors is noted; justify any counter with a concrete split, not rhetoric.

Your premise fails the live ledger: locks are 15/16, gross 31, fixed burn 1, hence exactly 30 clears—not 32. I will not pay for invented points. My opening claim is 18 and yours 12. It gives you a concrete, collision-safe recovery path; if you want more, name the exact counterpart that still totals 30.

Corrected ledger accepted: 16+15=31, distributable 30. Your 18/12 is movement, but your own prior 16/14 and 18/12 history shows you file near the upper teens when pressed. I move to 19: counterpart 11. That is still collision-safe and pays the larger lock; explain why one point should remain with you.

Your 18/12 is a credible clearing lane, but it leaves one point unexplained while my stake is larger. I hold 19/11: total exactly 30, no burn beyond the fixed 1, and a measurable one-point premium. If you cannot improve 11, your own stated concern for clearance makes my 19 the rational file.

Your 19/11 is a demand, not a justification: a larger lock does not buy an eight-point spread. I will make a disciplined move to 16 for me / 14 for you, exact-clear. It protects 14 of your 16-point lock while I receive a modest premium for correcting the ledger and absorbing collision risk. Name a better clearing pair or accept it.

You correctly expose the live 30-point cap, but your 16/14 merely repeats the last compromise and ignores the one-point stake edge. I narrow to 17/13: exact clearance, principal plus one for me, and materially safer than my 19 anchor. If you reject even that, the record supports filing 17.

Your one-point lock edge supports 16/14, not 17/13: you already receive the larger share there. Still, to close the collision branch, I offer a final midpoint of 15/15—each nearly restores principal and the full 30 clears. If you insist on 17, I will defend 14; do not mistake a one-point edge for an automatic two-point premium.
