Then

For computational-basis Enter on the released cells, with prefix probabilities ,

Writing , one has

Proof. Twirl . Its identity and swap coefficients are

The initial vault purity is , giving .

For record probabilities, use , of rank . The averaged two-copy vault state is

Since ,

Sum over outcomes.

The late marginal has rank at most , and the record has at most outcomes. These prove the upper bounds. Entropy is at least minus the logarithm of purity; Jensen's inequality proves the lower bounds. Direct comparison gives , proving the final estimate.
