The complete readout channel of Specification spec:readnoise obeys
Proof. On a ready branch, replace the independent pointer preparation by the all-zero state at cost . Telescope the quantum operations using Lemma lem:readcomponents. Then apply Theorem thm:assignment. This gives the ready-branch bound.
The failure branch has the same output alphabet and differs from the ideal channel by half-diamond distance at most one. Convexity therefore costs , while the ready budget has weight .
