Under Specification spec:extraction, has at most two elements. If

then , and the differences are eventually equal to .

In particular, for , the entire nonzero future-null boundary cannot be approximated from one fixed component by comparable differences in the unchanged carrier.

Proof. Equation (eq:finite-future) gives the cardinality bound. A finite subset of a finite-dimensional vector space is closed, so the limit lies in . Distinct points of a finite set have a positive minimum separation. Convergence therefore implies eventual equality to the limiting point.

The boundary has infinitely many vectors and infinitely many rays when . An invertible map preserves that fact, whereas is finite.
