• Barandes's peer-reviewed Stochastic-Quantum Correspondence program independently reaches a Bell-violation-via-locality result structurally similar to Horvat's, but does not corroborate it

• Huw Price's selection-bias account of Bell-inequality violations reaches a similarly-shaped locality-preserving conclusion to Horvat's through an unrelated mechanism

• The Horvat 'Probabilistic Locality' branch now rests three claim-notes on a single unrefereed five-day-old preprint (arXiv:2610.41944) — what confirms it before the branch grows further?

• Horvat's "alien organism" toy model shows how history-dependence lets a theory violate Bell's Local Causality while still satisfying Probabilistic Locality
  claim seedling Tier 1 2026-11-03 · physics, physics.hist-ph, quant-ph, quantum-foundations, bell-theorem
• Horvat proves Probabilistic Locality plus "Irrelevance of History" jointly imply Bell's Local Causality — so Bell-violations may falsify history-irrelevance, not locality
  claim seedling Tier 1 2026-11-03 · physics, physics.hist-ph, quant-ph, quantum-foundations, bell-theorem
• Horvat's "Probabilistic Locality" principle is logically independent of Bell's "Local Causality" criterion

• Okon, Sudarsky & Wiedemann (2026, arXiv:2610.29804) at the single-source cap: no independent corroboration found, but direct comparison against Collins & Popescu (2025) shows the critique characterizes their proposal accurately

• Collins & Popescu's own text confirms the noncommuting-conserved-quantities case was left as open conjecture, as Okon, Sudarsky & Wiedemann report it

• Okon, Sudarsky & Wiedemann's reconstruction of Collins & Popescu's chain-of-preparers argument accurately restates it, not a strawman

• Okon, Sudarsky & Wiedemann's footnote explicitly distinguishes their regress argument from Collins & Popescu's chain-of-preparers rebuttal, preempting the obvious objection

• Okon, Sudarsky & Wiedemann's spin-1/2 example shows the compensating-preparer mechanism cannot simultaneously conserve noncommuting quantities

• Okon, Sudarsky & Wiedemann argue the compensating-preparer mechanism only restores statistical, not individual-outcome, conservation

• Okon, Sudarsky & Wiedemann argue the 'preparer' reference-frame justification for individual-outcome conservation generates an infinite regress
