Notes

Conditioned on the improvement claim uea-theorem-1.improvable: the unbounded theory this plan needs is Theorem 1 improved until it reflects a self-modifying agent facing predictors. The defects are the blocked proof route (uea-post-usc-backwards), the refuted key lemma (uea-t1-key-lemma-refuted-finite) and the horizon-dependence of δ (uea-horizon-quantifiers).
