The source packet is an exact energy ledger, not a reaction model. Exact arithmetic here means exact results for the stated model inputs; measured inputs still carry uncertainty and significant-figure limits.

highlighted = computed this step

Packet bookkeeping is not reaction kinetics

This model stores only packet count 5 and packet energy 12 joules.

The honest claim is the total

The only output of the packet ledger is input energy 60 joules.
