docs: record prime-Sidon honest negative (0/35 after Bonferroni)

Claude Code completed the prime-Sidon spectral detection test:
- 35 test cases
- 0/35 significant after Bonferroni correction
- Adversarial review caught a tautology in original methodology
- Null hypothesis properly added
- Negative finding is properly bounded

GitHub: commit a0d95049

This is a third measured data point for the octagon:
- Sidon sets: YES (4/4)
- Graph coloring: YES (Hoffman)
- Prime distribution: NO (0/35) ← NEW
- Graph isomorphism: NO (cospectral)
- Text: NO (3.088 b/B)

The octagon is NOT universal. It works for some problems and
fails for others. The research question: what determines which
problems have spectral signatures?

**Why:** Braille/T9 on text: 4.167 b/B (dead). But the p-adic
valuations (prime factorization) ARE the prime decomposition — the
invariant signature. DNA carries invariants, not compressed bytes.
## 2026-07-03: Prime-Sidon Hypothesis → Honest Negative
**Was:** The prime number distribution has a Sidon-related spectral
signature detectable via Perceval SLOS.
**Result:** Honest negative. 35 test cases, 0/35 significant after
Bonferroni correction. The adversarial review caught a tautology
in the original methodology (which would have produced false
positives), added the null hypothesis, and the negative finding
is properly bounded.
**What this means:** The prime distribution does NOT have a
Sidon-detectable spectral signature through the SLOS pipeline.
This is a measured negative — it clears the question off the board.

**Implication for the octagon:** primes don't have the spectral
signature that Sidon sets do. The octagon works for Sidon (4/4)
but NOT for primes (0/35). This is a third data point:
| Problem | Octagon works? | Evidence |
|---------|----------------|----------|
| Sidon sets | YES | 4/4 (measured) |
| Graph coloring | YES | Hoffman bound (known) |
| Prime distribution | NO | 0/35 after Bonferroni (measured) |
| Graph isomorphism | NO | Cospectral graphs (known) |
| Text | NO | 3.088 b/B (measured) |
The octagon is NOT universal. It works for some problems and
fails for others. The research question is now: what determines
which problems have spectral signatures?
