Removing a common displacement from a gravitational channel test need not preserve its ability to exclude classical communication between quantum laboratories. We give a quantitative construction for four oscillators in a passive Newtonian rotating-wave model, using independent unknown coherent inputs, local heterodyne measurements, and classical subtraction of the common mode. An analytic bound on a bounded score holds for every normal local-operations-and-classical-communication (LOCC) channel, without an output-energy or Gaussian restriction. The ideal quantum mean is 0.125, whereas the LOCC mean is below 0.124068. With residual gain errors of 0.1%, phase errors of 0.01 radians, and an independently bounded common displacement, the respective bounds remain above 0.124581 and below 0.124438. We exhibit a common-noise regime in which the original vacuum-outcome criterion loses its guarantee while the relative score retains one. A conservative fixed-sample test controls false exclusion with memory in the null. The result assumes quantum local matter and trusted measurement structure; it neither excludes all classical phase-space models nor establishes experimental feasibility.
