Defines the neural codebook channel K_{e→d}(j|i) and proves a Bernoulli-KL bound on encoder-decoder mismatch in VAEs that cannot be recovered from marginal histograms or mutual information.
The paper does not use the experiments to claim superiority over baselines; they are reproducibility and calibration checks for a theory-first diagnostic
