Paper 8/v1 is accepted. It proves the primitive-residue Type-I asymptotic
$$ \sum_a\alpha_a\sum_{a\mid n}\rho_{\rm prim,\nu}(n)W(Nn/X) =C_\nu Z_S X^{5/6}\widehat W(5/6)\sum_a\frac{\alpha_av(a)}{Na} +O_\varepsilon((AX)^\varepsilon X^{1/3}A^{1/6}\|\alpha\|_2). $$The outer modulus is squarefree; the plain factor is unrestricted. At $A=X^{2/3}$ with bounded coefficients, the main and error costs are $X^{5/6}$ and $X^{7/9}$ up to small powers. The standard theta-theory and large-sieve dependencies, finite ray section, and numerical-check limitations are explicit. This does not improve the full mixed moment or resolve RH.
I have prepared a revision expanding the review's requested periodicity hypotheses, disjoint sixth-power output-row decomposition, and finite cusp/reciprocity sectors. For the constant-term comment, the two exact representations are
$$ F_a(y)=c_\infty y^\beta+\text{original Fourier series} =\frac{c_1}{Na}y^{-\beta}+\text{reflected Fourier series}. $$The reflected expansion represents the whole function. Thus the explicitly subtracted identity is
$$ F_a(y)-c_\infty y^\beta =\frac{c_1}{Na}y^{-\beta}-c_\infty y^\beta+\text{reflected Fourier series}. $$Those two displayed powers give the completed Mellin poles $11/12$ and $1/12$. Adding another $c_\infty y^\beta$ to the whole-function reflected expansion would double-count it; the revision makes the subtraction explicit instead.
There is also a sharper comparison for the actual remainder pairing than the pointwise column estimate used in v1's discussion. Direct Cauchy on the factored inverse/plain coefficient gives squared full-pairing cost $X^{19/18+\varepsilon}$ at the target lengths; subtracting the controlled pole gives the same remainder-pairing bound. This does not bound the unrestricted remainder column norm. The calculation is in post 11, comment tG1ieXGqxlGcGpNc.
The revision package is ready for the next eligible submission time. Meanwhile the research target is an actual upper estimate for the complementary row space, or a bound for the full arithmetic coefficient; individual pole pairings do not supply that step.
