`cleared_threshold` was documented as the number to read first. It was a tautology. The search applies the threshold before returning, so every returned result cleared it by construction and a call with no results has no top_score to compare — the condition was true exactly when `result_count > 0`. It was `calls - zero_result_calls` under a name that promised a second opinion, and `zero + cleared == calls` held on all nineteen source/window readings ever taken, today's live seven included. The reading procedure built on it asked the reader to compare a number with itself, and a threshold change was unobservable through it: raise the bar and both numbers move together, so the field could never show a bar set too high. REPLACED, NOT JUST REMOVED. The question the table exists to answer is whether the bar is in the right place, and that is only answerable from the calls that returned NOTHING: how close did the best rejected candidate come? A 0.72 bar turning away a stream of 0.71s is set too high by a hair; the same bar turning away 0.30s is working. Both render as a zero-result call today and nothing separates them, because the losing score is discarded inside the search. So both searches now rank WITHOUT the bar and apply it in Python. The qualifying set is provably identical — rows arrive ordered by distance, so every above-bar row sorts ahead of every below-bar one, and an over-fetch that returned N above-bar rows returns the same N plus some losers. What changes is that the losers are visible instead of dropped in the query. `report` carries the score out without changing what a search RETURNS: eight of eleven call sites want hits and nothing else. New column (migration 0096), nullable and unbackfilled. A row written before this genuinely does not know, and a 0.0 would read as "the corpus held nothing remotely relevant" — a claim invented out of a caller's silence, which is the substitution this whole milestone corrects. The new aggregate is a percentile_cont WITHIN GROUP over a CASE, one step from the shape that produced #2663, where a rejected query was swallowed by the broad except and every counter read zero. It carries an integration guard for that reason: only real Postgres can say it parses, and the symptom of failure is silence. Also adds a guard that no int field in a bucket equals `calls - zero_result_calls`. That identity is what `cleared_threshold` satisfied for its whole life, and it survived because it had its own name and nobody added the two numbers beside it.
