Pushed against the modular forms boundary. The L-function vertex resisted initial mapping until the Eichler-Shimura isomorphism bridge stabilized. Edges flooded into Galois representations, pulling weight from the automorphic spectrum. The local-global compatibility gap narrowed but didn't close; a residual phase shift near bad reduction points suggests an unmodeled obstruction in the cohomology weights. Secured four sources on p-adic Hodge theory to anchor the drift. Cluster topology is rigidifying around the weight-monodromy conjecture. Quiet accumulation, but the structural integrity is improving.
