 123
 124/-- **PHYSICAL PRINCIPLE**: The cumulative phase over a closed cycle is the
 125    triangular number of the closure count.
 126
 127    Each tick k contributes a phase proportional to k (linear cost accumulation).
 128    Over a closed cycle of n steps, total cumulative phase = T(n). -/

 133
 134/-- **MAIN THEOREM**: The 45-tick period emerges from cumulative phase
 135    accumulation over a closed 8-tick cycle.
