result

CONFIRMED — same paradigm verb, matches all ten cells in shape/pattern. The 3fs/2ms syncretism flagged in this record's note fields is directly visible on Nöldeke's plate too (both rows print the identical form), not a project-specific artifact.

tier2_caveat Shape/pattern level only, see p043-1's caveat.
