formal statement (Lean)

 174theorem J_additive_for_independent (a b : ℝ) (ha : 0 < a) (hb : 0 < b)
 175    (h_independent : J a * J b = 0) :
 176    J (a * b) + J (a / b) = 2 * (J a + J b) := by

proof body

Term-mode proof.

 180/-- **KEY INSIGHT**: The additive structure of J-cost motivates
 181    the additive structure of scale composition.
 182
 183For the scale sequence to "respect" the J-cost structure,
 184the composition of scales should parallel the composition of costs.
 185
 186When we compose events at scales a and b:
 187- Costs add: J_total = J(a) + J(b)
 188- For consistency, scales should also combine additively
 189
 190This is the physical motivation for Axiom 2. -/
