Statement

In the market-logic price model the tonk connective is a sure loss for the market maker, and harmony of introduction and elimination rules corresponds to pricing with no exposure.

Source

abramdemski, Market Logic II (LessWrong, 2025-11-23, https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/2dsTdcZL6a3EAxdbS/market-logic-ii), the price model the candidate theorem is stated in; Prior, The Runabout Inference-Ticket (Analysis, 1960), for tonk. The theorem is AI-derived and Lean-shaped; nothing has been run.

Notes

An agent-derived candidate theorem, not checked in Lean; the evidence parent of the sound-but-incomplete row of the local-rules crux. Its bearing, the filing session's reading: non-exploitability as the harmony condition is the bridge from local rules to a global admissibility condition.
