179theorem rs_hierarchy :
180 -- Basic fact: v << M_Planck (about 10^17 ratio)
181 -- We prove the ratio is indeed very large
182 let M_Planck : ℝ := 1.22e19 -- GeV
183 vev_observed / M_Planck < 1e-15 := by

189/-- When symmetry breaks, Goldstone bosons appear:

191 SU(2)_L × U(1)_Y → U(1)_EM
192
193 Three symmetries are broken → three Goldstone bosons.

195 These become the longitudinal components of W⁺, W⁻, Z⁰! -/

203theorem photon_massless :
204 -- U(1)_EM is preserved → photon stays massless
