Statement

Given actual coverage, the bill `(S) ∧ (R+) ∧ (P)` is logically equivalent to counterfactual Robust Openness: the conclusion factored by a case split, not an independent sufficient condition. Recorded so that the bill is not presented as a certificate.

Notes

Filed by the map-as-canonical round (prompts/2026-10-22-map-as-canonical) from the registry entry and the declaration's signature. The site-vertical-slice round (projects/enabling/rounds/2026-10-24-site-vertical-slice) connected it by reading: its hypotheses are the three leaves, its bridge names the gap between the claim and the declaration, and it is a conjunct of the informal claim split-bill-is-robust-openness, a shared-claim root of openness-and-non-capture, rather than a node that frame holds. Registry note: Given actual coverage, the bill (S) ∧ (R+) ∧ (P) is logically equivalent to counterfactual Robust Openness: the conclusion factored by a case split, not an independent sufficient condition. Recorded so that the bill is not presented as a certificate. The registry's answers_item is the priorities pointer to item 78 (ruling F2).

Bridge card

A conjunct of the informal claim split-bill-is-robust-openness: Given actual coverage, the earlier bill for Robust Openness that allowed a route to be replaced rather than preserved is Robust Openness itself, split on whether the concern was live at the actual prefix, and is recorded as such rather than presented as a certificate.

Bridge (formalizer-stated; openness.certplus-is-robust-openness.bridge, drafted):

The claim asserts that the earlier split bill for Robust Openness, a silent prefix clause, route persistence allowing a named replacement, and standing, is, given actual coverage, Robust Openness itself factored by a case split on whether the concern is live at the actual prefix, and not an independent sufficient condition. The declaration certifies exactly that equivalence over an abstract finite scenario: with actual coverage inside the protected routes, the conjunction of the three clauses is logically equivalent to coverage and standing in every declared counterfactual. The gaps: the declaration's RobustOpen quantifies over the declared counterfactuals only, while the wiki's Robust Openness at a state conjoins the actual branch (the file's RobustOpenActual adds it, and its counterfactual_open_not_actual shows the two differ), so the equivalence is with the counterfactual half; the scenario abstracts coverage to booleans and does not model how a counterfactual state is produced, so nothing here is a causal non-capture theorem, as the file says of itself; and the claim's force as a correction (the bill is no certificate) rests on the companion results that the componentwise persistence bill is strictly stronger, which this record does not certify.

Hypotheses, read:

Completeness (openness.certplus-is-robust-openness.complete): No premise beyond the signature's binders enters the declaration; the kernel checks it as stated. The result is the record, the three hypothesis leaves filed by reading (the scenario, the protected route set, actual coverage inside it), the bridge and this leaf.

What remains (split-bill-is-robust-openness.improvable)

The compression of the split bill into Robust Openness, in which the earlier bill is the definition factored by a case split, can be improved until it reflects a trajectory whose Robust Openness is certified under an intervention semantics read off its accounted state well.
