Any item with a mark
That builds the union of misses.

2^k mark patterns — enumerable for small k. No mesh state machine is claimed.
What does this fail to establish?
Your words stay on this page. Nothing is sent or stored.
- anything about why the marks fell where they did
- These are self-audited digital models, not independently verified physical devices.
- No learner efficacy, transfer, accessibility equivalence, or vendor performance has been measured.
- Unbounded and temporal devices remain text exercises; no faithful state machine is asserted for them.
- The receipt exercise has no supplied totals or ceiling, so it supports no computed denominator here.

Which pile represents items missed by every reader?
- Any item with a mark
- Only items carrying every mark
- Only unmarked items
- The complement of any named good pile
