无需锚点，端到端优化权重实现多层知识编辑。

Multi-layer locate-then-edit methods for knowledge editing first optimize target residual-stream activations (anchors) at selected layers, then realize them layer by layer as weight updates. This pipeline optimizes an intermediate representation but deploys multi-layer weight updates whose joint effect through the true forward pass is never itself optimized: regardless of how anchors are set or propagated, each update comes from a local solve, so propagation-induced attenuation and distortion go uncorrected, leaving a closure gap between anchor targets and realized edits. We propose DOW-KE, an anchor-free method built on a single principle: what is optimized must be exactly what is deployed. DOW-KE backpropagates the final editing objective through the complete model, jointly optimizing the updates of all edited layers so cross-layer propagation and coupling enter every gradient step. The same principle dictates where preservation resides: embedding the preservation projection in the update parameterization, inside the computation graph, makes every gradient act on the deployed update; post-hoc constraints would reopen the gap, and the constrained search keeps edits clear of protected knowledge. In large-scale sequential editing on two datasets and three models, DOW-KE achieves the highest overall Score and neighborhood Specificity in five of six model-dataset settings among the evaluated baselines.
