  78/-- **THEOREM (Ultimate Inevitability)**
  79
  80The three primitive requirements (symmetry, normalization, consistency)
  81plus regularity (smoothness, calibration) uniquely determine:
  821. F = J
  832. P = the RCL
  84
  85There is no weaker foundation that still defines "cost of comparison."
