Finite 𝔽₂-duality preserves cardinality (local clone of the
BlockR.card_dual_eq_of_finite computation,
Induction/BlockRealizationAssembly.lean:117–126 — cloned rather than
imported so as not to pull the packet file into this layer).
At a card-2 kernel the invariant-dual space has exactly two elements:
𝒳 = ⊤ (W2b) and |Dual N| = |N| = 2.
lem:commonscalars (l.3791–3815), local half, at ANY order-2 elementary
kernel, as a THEOREM from the citable q2_localduality_general count clause
(localObstruction_count): |Z¹| = |N|² · |𝒳| = 2² · 2 = 8. See the module
docstring for the provenance note (Euler–Poincaré route, content-equal to the
manuscript's labute_GQ2_maxPro2_marked route).
Uniform lift count from the cocycle count (both sources; the glue
supplying the W2a core's huni): if every base lift's twisted-cocycle set has
size 8, so does the whole lift set of a liftable child.
