The bearing
Arcs die at the exit, not at the integer stamped on the back.
A survey curve does not fail in the middle first. The exit radius goes straight, clay hold dies, and the sole still looks wide while shots already hop. Bounce fails the same way on South Fourth.
We soot a thin film on glass, press the sole, and read where the smoke refuses the curve. That pale chord is a flattened exit. Tiara Rado mornings accelerate it because clay sits in the trailing radius overnight and the first bunker of the day files it straight.
If the exit is pale and the entry still holds smoke, the sole is two bearings. We will not restake the living half as a kindness to the dead half. Nils marks the exit as boxed and the entry as leave.
Players who want one bounce for the whole wedge are asking the transit to average a curve with a ruler. The station does not do that.
