 106    dJ/dφ = 0 at φ = v/√2
 107
 108    This is spontaneous symmetry breaking in J-cost language. -/

 115/-- Why is μ² > 0 (tachyonic mass term)?
 116
 117    In standard physics, this is just assumed.
 118
 119    In RS, μ² > 0 because:
 120    - The symmetric state (φ = 0) has HIGH J-cost
 121    - The broken state (φ = v) has LOWER J-cost
 122    - J-cost minimization drives symmetry breaking
