For arbitrary smooth , the pointwise relational scalar and its fixed-label smearing satisfy

under . In particular, and descend under this restricted formal action.

Proof. The coordinate intertwiner implies

Composing with the scalar intertwiner gives

The fixed label density gives the smeared identity. Appendix app:direct checks the second coefficient directly.
