If , both support orderings hold, and , no symmetric causally factorizing map exists on .

Proof. Factorization and symmetry would give

This contradicts Proposition prop:commutator. The nonzero coefficient at order remains nonzero in . The argument is independent of every contact choice and every higher coefficient.
