The indexed pool total is checked without collapsing source identity.
The indexed pool total is checked without collapsing source identity. Exact arithmetic here means exact results for the stated model inputs; measured inputs still carry uncertainty and significant-figure limits.
highlighted = computed this step
Three index labels keep three sources separate
The index labels are A,B,C. Each row carries 8 unique reads.
A:8,B:8,C:8
The pool total is twenty-four unique reads
The total unique-read count is 24, but the index rows remain visible.
