 164theorem compression_5_discs : totalCompressionRatio 5 = phi ^ 5 := rfl
 165theorem compression_8_discs : totalCompressionRatio 8 = phi ^ 8 := rfl
 166
 167/-- The ratio between consecutive Fibonacci-count compressions is φ.
 168    φ^{F_{n+1}} / φ^{F_n} = φ^{F_{n+1} - F_n} = φ^{F_{n-1}}.
 169
 170    This means stepping from a 5-disc to an 8-disc turbine
 171    multiplies the compression by φ³ = φ⁵/φ² = φ^(8-5).
 172
 173    The Fibonacci disc counts form a natural hierarchy where each
 174    step up in complexity provides φ-scaled improvement. -/

 184
 185/-- The efficiency of a Tesla turbine stage is inversely related to
 186    the J-cost of its compression ratio.
 187    For a single-turn κ=1 stage: J(φ) = φ − 3/2 ≈ 0.118.
 188    This is the minimum non-trivial cost on the φ-ladder. -/

 193/-- J(1) = 0: a turbine with no compression has zero cost (trivial). -/
