  80
  81    Formalized as: for our 8-tick code with d=8, t=3,
  82    the volume of radius-3 balls around 2^1 codewords fits inside {0,1}^8. -/

  91    Codes meeting this bound are MDS (Maximum Distance Separable).

  93    Formalized for the 8-tick code: d=8 ≤ 8-1+1 = 8. -/

  97/-! ## 8-Tick Error Correction -/
  98
  99/-- In RS, the 8-tick structure provides natural error correction:
 100
 101    **8-tick phases**: 0, π/4, π/2, ..., 7π/4
 102
 103    Information encoded across all 8 phases:
 104    - Single phase error → still 7 correct phases
 105    - Majority voting among phases
 106    - 8-fold redundancy possible
 107
 108    This is a rate-1/8 code that can correct up to 3 errors! -/
