XIV-B@1#cor:nopromotion
The identity of (eq:ledger) cannot be realized as an identity in a quotient of by the classes of functionals vanishing on , compatibly with the inherited brackets and a nonzero formal unit. The auxiliary pairing itself belongs to : it vanishes on and has nonzero class in by the copied witness. Its vanishing is an evaluation on , and remains one.
Proof. Such a promotion is a unital homomorphism whose kernel contains , hence every ; Theorem thm:quotient forces . Membership of in is the vanishing on in (eq:ledger); non-membership in is the value at .
