 165operator satisfies Identity, then the derived cost function takes value
 166zero at the multiplicative identity. -/

 173/-- **Translation lemma 2 (Non-contradiction + Scale invariance ⇒ Reciprocity)**:
 174If a comparison operator is single-valued under argument reordering and
 175depends only on ratios, then the derived cost function is invariant under
 176inversion of its argument: F(x) = F(1/x).
