| Quantity | Value |
|---|---|
| DCT canonical `γ − 1` | `-9.992e-06` |
| GR | `0` |
| Cassini measured | `(2.1e-05 ± 2.3e-05)` |
| MESSENGER bound | `|γ − 1| ≲ 4.0e-05` |
| σ-distance DCT from Cassini | `-1.35σ` |
| σ-distance GR from Cassini | `-0.91σ` |

**Classification:** **NEUTRAL**.

## Interpretation

DCT canonical gamma-1 = -9.99e-6 lies inside Cassini's 1-sigma band. Cassini cannot discriminate DCT from GR (both within 1.5 sigma of the central value). Decisive test forward to BepiColombo MORE 2028 (forecast sigma ~ 1.4e-6, giving ~7 sigma separation between DCT -9.99e-6 and GR 0).

## Falsifier signature

BepiColombo MORE 2028 will reach σ_γ ~ 1.4 × 10⁻⁶, providing a
clean ~7σ separation between DCT (−9.99 × 10⁻⁶) and GR (0).
A measured γ − 1 > 0 at >5σ would falsify DCT-PPN-01.
