What this report cannot verify
Motive and identity remain unknown
These aggregates cannot distinguish speculation, hedging, overwriting, participant capacity, or verified open/close labels.
Conditional dealer mechanics
If a dealer was the counterparty, carried this position without portfolio offsets, and delta-hedged it, the mechanical scenario could require the dealer to buy underlying. This is not verified flow.
