Statement
An exact legitimate-world estimate of illegitimate-world consequences exists exactly when every atom carrying illegitimate mass also carries legitimate mass, and a voiding action's voided set never does.

Connected to no informal claim yet: held by no frame.
Declaration Phi_exact_iff (record inferability-and-positivity.record)
The exactness iff is the inferability condition for legitimate-world estimates, and its failure for voided sets is the positivity obstruction to the defense that legitimate-branch evaluators score actions correctly.
Hypotheses, read:
- inferability-and-positivity.setting definitional: A finite state space with a legitimacy event of positive mass, a consequence random variable and the estimator Phi defined on legitimate atoms, as the package fixes them.
Completeness (inferability-and-positivity.complete): No premise beyond the proved declaration, its stated setting and its bridge is needed for the informal reading of inferability and positivity to hold.
