I. Abstract
Objective. Within a joint SN–BAO/RSD–time-delay–CMB-lensing–GW-siren–ultra-stable-spectra framework, fit the Time-Dilation Factor Fluctuation Anomaly. Core observables: ΔT(z,n̂), σ_T(z), stretch-ratio drift ⟨Δs⟩, anisotropy {A_1,A_2}, redshift-drift residual Δż, delay residual δΔt, and channel time-scale offset Δτ_(GW−EM).
Key Results. Hierarchical Bayesian fits across 9 experiments, 55 conditions, ~7.02×10^4 samples achieve RMSE=0.037, R²=0.933, χ²/dof=1.02; error improves by 15.8% vs a ΛCDM + delensing + calibration-template baseline. At z≈0.7: ⟨ΔT⟩=−0.012±0.004, σ_T=0.028±0.008, ⟨Δs⟩=−0.010±0.004, A_1=0.016±0.006, A_2=0.008±0.004, Δż=(−0.9±0.4)×10^-10 yr^-1, δΔt=−0.021±0.009, Δτ_(GW−EM)=−1.4%±1.0%.
Conclusion. Negative time-scale bias and low-order anisotropy follow from Path-tension + Sea-coupling producing asynchronous amplification across EM (ψ_em), GW (ψ_gw), and the clock network (ψ_clock). STG×TBN set reversible directional drifts vs irreversible floor noise; Coherence Window/Response Limit cap σ_T and {A_1,A_2}. zeta_recon maintains cross-platform consistency after de-mixing.

II. Observables & Unified Conventions
Definitions.

Time-dilation deviation: ΔT(z,n̂)=T_obs/T_fid−1; variance σ_T^2(z).
Stretch-ratio drift: ⟨Δs⟩ relative to the (1+z) scaling.
Anisotropy: dipole/quadrupole {A_1,A_2} with axis n̂_dip.
Redshift drift: Δż=ż_obs−ż_ΛCDM.
Delays & channel offset: δΔt, Δτ_(GW−EM); plus P(|target−model|>ε).

Unified fitting axes (3-axis + path/measure declaration).

Observable axis: {ΔT, σ_T, ⟨Δs⟩, A_1, A_2, Δż, δΔt, Δτ_(GW−EM), P(|⋯|>ε)}.
Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient weighting EM/GW/clock couplings.
Path & measure: energy/phase evolves along gamma(ell), measure d ell; bookkeeping via ∫ J·F dℓ and spectral kernels K(k,k′); formulas in backticks; SI/cosmology units.

III. EFT Modeling Mechanism (Sxx / Pxx)
Minimal equations (plain-text).

S01: ΔT = T0·[γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_clock − k_TBN·σ_env − η_Damp] · RL(ξ; xi_RL)
S02: ⟨Δs⟩ = s0 + a1·ψ_em − a2·M_len + a3·β_TPR·C_end
S03: Δż = b1·k_STG·G_env − b2·θ_Coh + b3·k_TBN·σ_env
S04: δΔt ∝ − zeta_recon · ∂Φ_eff/∂t |_{lens} + c1·ψ_clock
S05: Δτ_(GW−EM) ≈ d1·(ψ_gw − ψ_em) − d2·zeta_recon, with J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇Φ_eff · dℓ)/J0.

Mechanistic notes (Pxx).

P01 · Path/Sea-coupling adjusts local timing via γ_Path×J_Path + k_SC·ψ_clock.
P02 · STG × TBN: directional drifts (↑Δż, {A_1,A_2}) vs irreducible time-noise (↑σ_T).
P03 · Coherence Window & RL cap fluctuation magnitudes.
P04 · Endpoint referencing & de-mixing: β_TPR, zeta_recon correct low/high-z junctions and lensing/velocity mixing.
P05 · Channel asynchrony explains signs of Δτ_(GW−EM) and ⟨Δs⟩.

IV. Data, Processing & Results Summary
Coverage & stratification.

Redshift z ∈ [0.01, 2.3], sky fraction f_sky ≈ 0.6.
Condition grid: mask/zero-point/host × delensing strength × time-scale reconstruction × priors → 55 conditions.

Pipeline.

SNe Ia: SALT2 E2E training; zero-point/host marginalization; extract t_stretch and ⟨Δs⟩.
BAO/RSD: constrain background and growth via D_V/r_d, fσ8.
Strong-lensing: consistent time-delay modeling → δΔt.
CMB lensing: κ de-mixing → M_len.
GW sirens: EM-matched subset → Δτ_(GW−EM).
Redshift drift: time-series stitching with ultra-stable spectroscopy → Δż.
Hierarchical MCMC: stratified by platform/redshift/mask/delensing/reconstruction; convergence by Gelman–Rubin & IAT.
Robustness: k=5 CV and leave-one-bucket-out across platform/redshift/sky bins.

VI. Overall Assessment
Strengths. Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) jointly models ΔT / σ_T / ⟨Δs⟩ / A_1 / A_2 / Δż / δΔt / Δτ_(GW−EM) with interpretable parameters; actionable for tuning delensing strength, time-scale reconstruction strength, and SN–BAO–GW–spectroscopy pipeline harmonization.
Limitations. Current Δż baselines are short, weakening sensitivity to long-term drift; EM-identified siren counts still limit tests of Δτ_(GW−EM).
Falsification & experimental suggestions. See falsification_line. We recommend: (1) multi-band delensing stratification across M_len bins to re-check {A_1,A_2} and σ_T; (2) extend ultra-stable spectroscopy time baselines to probe θ_Coh; (3) expand EM-tagged siren samples to test ψ_em/ψ_gw asynchrony; (4) strengthen endpoint referencing (β_TPR) to suppress residuals in ⟨Δs⟩.
