 212/-- **THE MAIN THEOREM**: Logic is the structure of cost minimization.
 213
 214    1. Contradictions cannot have zero cost (they're unstable)
 215    2. Consistent propositions can have zero cost (they can stabilize)
 216    3. Therefore: the stable configurations are the logically consistent ones
 217    4. Therefore: logic = the structure of what can exist = what minimizes cost
 218
 219    This proves: logical consistency is not imposed from outside.
 220    It emerges from the cost landscape. Logic is cheap. -/
