With outputs ordered as ,

Its accessible channel and complete complement are

Hence

For , put . An optimal decoder is

For , use .

There is an identified comparison isometry on the same complete spaces that retains , places all emitted weight in a collected mode, and leaves missed modes vacant. Writing

its complete distance is

The collected-channel distance is exactly .

Proof. Factorization gives (eq:Wcol). The two branches are orthogonal on both output sides, and

The residual embedding is orthogonal to . Partial traces give the channels. Lemma lem:erasure proves (eq:packeterrors) and the decoder formula. An optimal residual comparison state is

If , choose

If , choose any normalized collected mode and multiply it by . If , set . Use (eq:WSF) with this wavefunction. The resulting is an isometry, and

Theorem thm:C1 proves the exact complete distance. Also,

because .

The comparison collected channel minus the actual collected channel is

with the comparison embedding used at a zero-success endpoint. The two output supports are orthogonal, so the half-diamond distance is .
