We know from direct measurements and studies at the boiling point that
the Pd-D system has a positive temperature coefficient in this range.
This behavior is characteristic of the effect because the rate must be
determined by an endothermic reaction. The Pd-D system will not be
very active at very high temperatures because the concentration of D
in Pd drops rapidly with increased temperature. This means the rate
will start to drop as temperature is increased above a much lower
temperature than is the case of Ni.

I agree, but perhaps this description only applies to Ni-H, not Pd-
D. Could that be the case?
I have never heard of a Pd-D experiment at such high temperatures.
Who knows how it might work. I would like to find out.
