Track 2: the Barnes-Rivers spin decomposition of the graviton propagator -- perturbative graviton unitarity SECTOR-BY-SECTOR (extends v304's scalar pole algebra to the tensor spin structure + combines with v334's spin-0 conformal mode). [E] projector completeness: tr P2=(d-2)(d+1)/2, tr P1=d-1, tr P0s=tr P0w=1 sum to d(d+1)/2; the d=4 split is 5+3+1+1=10. [E] EH structure: spin-2 coefficient +1, spin-0 scalar -1/(d-2)=-1/2. [E] the Stelle ghost is a SPIN-2 state (a local 1+p^2/M^2 dressing puts the negative-residue pole at p^2=-M^2). [E] the entire KMS form factor e^{p^2/M^2} (v304/v259) makes spin-2 ghost-free (only the p^2=0 pole). [C] the wrong-sign spin-0 conformal mode (c_conf(4)=-3/2, v332) is cured by the GHP contour (v334) -- a different mechanism. [C] => perturbative graviton unitarity sector-by-sector, conditional on v304's entire-analyticity assumption. [O] perturbative-only + the open analyticity assumption; NOT the non-perturbative measure (QG.AMB.01). [O] decline: tr P2=5 is dimension counting, NOT g_car (v354/v355).
