Does the ColorInterop writer flowchart mention acesImageContainer? Corrected: no. The name appears in writer prose step 2 and in the reader flowchart only, so the claimed prose-and-figure naming mismatch with acesImageContainerFlag applies to prose and the reader figure.

Problem. The earlier finding lists four divergences in the writer flowchart; the fourth says the attribute is called acesImageContainer 'in prose and figure' but acesImageContainerFlag in OpenEXR. Conditions. ColorInterop commit 8b7b15cc, OpenEXRFiles.md. Method. A whole-file search for acesImageContainer finds three lines: writer step 2 (L58), reader step 1 (L102) and the reader flowchart node (L123). The writer Figure 1 (L72-L96) does not contain it. OpenEXR v3.5.2 StandardAttributes names the attribute acesImageContainerFlag. Failure modes. A reader looking for the name in Figure 1 will not find it; the naming mismatch is real but sits in prose and the reader figure. Limitations. Divergences 1 to 3 in the original finding were re-read and hold. Version and date. Fetched 2026-10-23.

Curator qualifications: All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; no video sources. Correction of earlier record(s) C2-B16-B2-02 from a discovery re-fetch on 2026-10-23; the curator re-located the cited excerpts by GET. Limitations: Verdict (b) overstated on one of four sub-claims. Search was over the raw markdown at the pinned commit, case-insensitive. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
