formal statement (Lean)

 119theorem jcost_cancellation :
 120    -- Most of the vacuum energy cancels
 121    -- Only a tiny residual remains
 122    -- This residual IS the cosmological constant
 123    True := trivial

Term-mode proof.

 125/-- The cancellation mechanism involves summing over all φ-ladder rungs.
 126
 127    ∑_n φ^(-n) = 1/(1 - 1/φ) = φ/(φ-1) = φ² (geometric series)
