Curatorial Note

Closing beat of the 5-stack reads as a refund check arriving in the mail; the mint-accent chrome seals the punchline with a paper-trail visual.

Visible copy: FILED 11M TOKENS AS A LOSS. / EXPECTED NOTHING. / OPENAI MAILED A FULL REFUND.

Even the receipt came back with a stamp on it.
