865 objects have no place. See why, and how they relate instead — a coordinate they do not have would be a claim, not a kindness. The count is corpus-wide; no lens or window changes it.One more object is located but its mark is withheld: the coordinate is declared, not yet verified, and an unverified pin reads as a fact.
