23 Copy, whole hold, and the direct path bound
Appendix E proves the complete copy and holding inequalities. The exact moving annihilator is
With and the characteristic variables, its forced equation has the sole finite-clock source
In the completed-clock region the pointer current is controlled by . Positive inner pointer regions and , followed by soft barriers to , give an entire-interval estimate; recrossings are charged by absolute variation. A soft radial classifier on the same exact trajectories connects the conserved-sector proxy to the actual earlier position label. It does not replace that label by a sampled logical bit.
The copy proof retains its baseline radial band current, finite-clock radial correction, positive pointer-inner event, entire hold current, and the shared clock-core, clock-deviation and radial-exit exceptions. The hold-current term is below ; the full sum is (10). Every term concerns the new Hamiltonian and original entrance law.
In the union of failed earlier-label transfer and failed record history, the same three exceptional events need be charged only once. Their identity is explicit in both proofs; this is a union of events, not subtraction of unrelated numerical upper bounds. The outward arithmetic in Section 26 gives
The preserved reference earlier-label estimate, including both original allowances, is . Coupling first to the correct constant record of and then to its target Bernoulli label proves
This establishes the whole observable of Theorem 19.1.
The former comparison to the entire imperfect periodic reference apparatus has the different sufficient upper expression
That expression does not meet the old target . Its failure is not an actual error lower bound. The theorem uses the expressly permitted direct ideal joint-path alternative.
