Discharges item D-495-501-03 by computing the w_phiCDM surfaces of the two rolling-field classes paper #498's Sec.5 names, at #498's standard and gated on #433's CPL exhibits and #498's inverse-power-law rows digit-for-digit, each class passing its own parameter-zero Lambda gate. The exponential class's surface falls steeply (lambda = 0.5: w0 = -0.980, H0 = 72.99; lambda = 2.5: w0 = -0.556, H0 = 69.36) and terminates: at lambda = 3.0 the conditioning is unreachable (Omega_phi max 0.6191), the scaling attractor cap 3/lambda^2 reaching the conditioning value at lambda = 2.096; the CPL gap grows to -0.23. The monomial (thawing) class has no surface at the standard initial condition beyond Lambda: for every even n >= 2 the conditioning is unreachable, with computed maxima falling from 0.1815 (n = 2) to 0.0128 (n = 10), because V''/V = n(n-1)/phi_i^2 >= 8 thaws and drains the field before it can dominate; odd n are excluded as unbounded below. Quantum gravity NOT SOLVED; vacuum catastrophe NOT SOLVED.
