 122
 123/-- **Theorem (Probability is Epistemic)**:
 124    The "randomness" seen by a finite-resolution observer arises from
 125    finite information capacity, not from ontological indeterminism.
 126
 127    Proof: The deterministic structure (unique J-minimizer) is real;
 128    the probabilistic appearance is a consequence of the projection. -/
