Bridge (reconstructed; carey-everitt-thm10-vacuous.bridge, drafted):

The declaration that the press probability is zero under the theorem's hypotheses is what makes Theorem 10 vacuous in the paper's intended reading, and the Theorem 14 refutation is a refutation of the paper's sentence under its own fixed utility domain.

Hypotheses, read:

Completeness (carey-everitt-thm10-vacuous.complete): No premise beyond the proved declaration, its stated setting and its bridge is needed for the informal reading of carey everitt thm10 vacuous to hold.
