Notes
Deference Done Better's central result (Dorst, Levinstein, Salow, Husic and Fitelson) as a literal claim at the level above the quantifiable. Conditioned on the li-trust branch's ddb-finite-frames-formalized, the clean room's kernel-checked form. The improvement claim on it carries the maintainer's 'Deference Done Better, Done Better' routes.
