Keys #1–#135 land where a uniform draw would put them.
Even or odd y says nothing about where the key sits.
z 2.01 is one hit in ~18 tests, not a trend — and its band still spans most of the range.
A band hands back the sqrt saving while throwing away 1−f of the keys.
Verdict: walk the whole interval [2^139, 2^140−1] — 3.1·√2^139 ≈ 2.6e21 steps. Random 2^54 drops cost 4.95e13x more, and a band fitted to this sample is a random band with a story attached.
