Every live winner, soft-signal non-converter, and 8/23 staged ad routed to one of the 12 new product-aware listicle pages stamped today. Routing rule throughout: hook congruence — the ad's opening image is the thing the page H1 pays off.

The 8-13 overhaul tanked CVR; page restored to pre-8/13 body 8-23 17:32 ET (Fish order). Old ADHD listicle is back to its converting control. New-page mapping below is unaffected.
The 8-13 PDP↔listicle split adset starved — $54 across 15 ads in 10 days vs thousands on the twins. Starvation = pixel read, not falsification. PDP-vs-listicle stays an open question; nothing contradicts this map.
All 12 product-aware pages get ≥1 proven-hook feeder. PLUS: 5 problem-aware pages shipped later on 8-23 (§5) — partner gap now closed; only dad-witness remains open.
THE DESTINATIONS
11 ad-congruent variants stamped from the v3 base (each swaps H1 + intro + hero clip + lane-correct PDP dest) plus the broad deep-sleeper-guide. Each variant was seeded by a proven hook — the page is the presell the ad never had.

SECTION 2
Cheap intent (CTR / CPATC) that never purchased. Several are literal title matches that never had a congruent presell. Same ad, new destination — that IS the retest.

SECTION 4
12 witness natives launched this morning on the old pages with $25/day floors. Editing destination now resets delivery AND corrupts the read. When an ad earns a dupe after the 8-30 gate, its congruent target:

SECTION 5 · ADDED LATER 8-23
The 12 pages above are product-aware. Five problem-aware siblings shipped tonight in the same ppad styling (stamped off the 8-23 base — spine: real reason → graveyard → lane cost → mechanism turn → escalation → handoff). Each exists to revive a specific dead workhorse family: lifetime spend high, last-14-day spend ≈ $0. Total addressable dead spend: ~$160k lifetime at ~1.8 blended ROAS.
