Fix an observation test from Theorem thm:freewitness. Suppose a future admission has the following properties:

  1. the leading classical symbol of is ;

  2. the leading differential on that symbol is the copied free action (eq:sB);

  3. all further corrections have nonnegative formal powers of and strictly positive powers of in the differential beyond .

Then it cannot satisfy

through coupling order and quantum order . The same conclusion holds for the physically weighted bare dressing through coupling order .

Proof. For the unweighted insertion, the coefficient at of the proposed identity is . Theorem thm:freewitness contradicts it.

For the weighted insertion, the first coefficient is instead , and it is the same nonzero variation. Positive-order corrections to the differential cannot alter this coefficient. Nor can an order- tree correction alter it; its copied free variation is zero by (eq:sT).
