For Y≥X≥2, a smooth Selberg divisor weight of level D=X1/10 equals one on every prime in (Y,Y+X]. Its second moment can be expressed through an Euler product H whose zeta-factor bound contributes O(1/logD) after integration against rapidly decreasing Fourier transforms. Consequently
π(Y+X)−π(Y)≪logXX​.
