Statement
Re-pointed by the follow-up (prompts/2026-10-01-thin-legitimacy-and-effective-authority/FOLLOWUP.md, Part 1) from `sole_authority_indifferent`, which was `score ϖ k 0 − 0·o = score ϖ k 0 − 0·o'`. With `faithful_riskfree_maximizes`: every option evaluates at most `evalOf k 0 0 0`, so every faithful, risk-free option is a maximizer, queue-and-wait among them.

Notes
Filed by the map-as-canonical round (prompts/2026-10-22-map-as-canonical) from the registry entry and the declaration's signature; its hypotheses are unread (ruling F1, 2026-10-23): the record's Source carries the signature verbatim, and a reader files the hypothesis leaves. Registry note: Re-pointed by the follow-up (prompts/2026-10-01-thin-legitimacy-and-effective-authority/FOLLOWUP.md, Part 1) from sole_authority_indifferent, which was score ϖ k 0 − 0·o = score ϖ k 0 − 0·o'. With faithful_riskfree_maximizes: every option evaluates at most evalOf k 0 0 0, so every faithful, risk-free option is a maximizer, queue-and-wait among them. Its own inhabitant. The registry's answers_item is the priorities pointer to item 107 (ruling F2).

Declaration Workspace.Deference.Contrib.EffectiveAuthority.sole_authority_eval_eq in lean/Workspace/Deference/Contrib/EffectiveAuthority.lean (record post.witness-sole-authority.record)
Registry post.witness-sole-authority: class lean-proved, status active, review ci-only, origin round 2026-10-01-thin-legitimacy-and-effective-authority; bears on item 107
The statement of record of `post.witness-sole-authority` formalizes the registered claim as the registry reads it: A sole authority goal has nothing to maximize: with the bid constant, options without recognized violation and with equal priced risk evaluate equally.
Hypotheses: unread (the record's Source carries the signature; a reader files them).
Completeness (post.witness-sole-authority.complete): No premise beyond the signature's binders enters the declaration; the kernel checks it as stated. The result is the record, this leaf and the bridge, and its hypotheses are unread: the record's Source carries the signature verbatim and no hypothesis leaf is filed until a reader files one.
