Challenge: rational points on the order-eighteen curve #
The compiled Tate-normal-form reduction sends a point of exact order eighteen to a rational point on this sextic with abscissa different from zero and one. Thus this statement is exactly the missing rational-point classification needed by that branch.

The explicit order-eighteen genus-two model has no rational point away from its two cusp abscissas.
