Best chain metric: count of ticketed (non-fallback) seals among ancestors. GP §19. m = Σ_{H^A ∈ A♭} T^A. Select B♭ to maximize this value.

Check if a block is acceptable for best chain consideration. GP §19. A block must:
-
Be a descendant of the finalized block: A(H♭) ∋ H♮
-
Have all reports audited: U♭ ≡ ⊤
-
Not contain equivocating headers in unfinalized range: ¬∃ H^A ≠ H^B : H^A_T = H^B_T ∧ H^A ∈ A(H♭) ∧ H^A ∉ A(H♮)
