Each tile realises only a subset of the parity-admissible alphabet on its rim, and tiles genuinely omit interfaces (n=12 m=8: max 273/274, min 43). But any two tiles always glue: interface subsets always overlap (n=9 m=3-6, n=12 m=3-8) -- usually via a global universal seam present on every inner+outer rim, and where none exists (n=12 m=7) the worst pair still shares 14 seams. The universal seams are the low-complexity ones (<=2 colours, single contiguous block). No local gluing obstruction; any obstruction must be global across a nested stack.
