The Prime-Two Additive Incidence Does Not Descend to the Valuation Seam

At a finite place the exact additive derivative analogue is

$$\Delta_h=\tau_h-I, \qquad \mathcal F_p\Delta_h=(M_{\chi_h}-I)\mathcal F_p.$$

This source-native Fourier square does not descend to the valuation quotient. At prime $2$, choose $h=\tfrac12$. Then

$$v_2(1/2)=v_2(3/2)=-1,$$

but

$$v_2(1/2+h)=v_2(1)=0, \qquad v_2(3/2+h)=v_2(2)=1.$$

Thus no valuation-only $P_{\mathrm{fin}}$ can represent the additive incidence. The archimedean Green forcing defect cannot be cancelled directly by attaching primitive or prime-square Euler currents through such a square. The surviving object must retain additive residue data and multiplicative valuation data simultaneously, most naturally as a local recollement or residue-aware correspondence.
