For every ,

If exactly two branches are supported, then

The equality in the first line uses perfect-record structure.

Proof. Apply the triangle inequality to (eq:cross-expansion) and use . For two branches, an unsplit pair contributes nothing to . A split pair is either screened, making both sides zero, or has orthogonal supports as in Proposition prop:screening, giving equality.
