Derive the tightest possible lower and upper bounds for the diagonal Ramsey number R(5,5) using only short, hand-checkable formal certificates and classical analytical methods. Your objective is to surpass the bounds currently established in the public literature by strictly manual, non-computational proofs. You must provide self-contained, step-by-step mathematical certificates for your bounds, and formally prove the absolute limit of where these pure manual counting techniques stall.
