Commit addresses this index holds

From gh-fake-analyzer 1.0.2, the Ketman Project's GitHub analysis tool, run on 2026-10-11. 1 other commit address is held for review rather than listed. These are signals: backdated history and several commit identities are common among ordinary developers too, and an account that shows none of them is not thereby cleared.
