 206/-! ## Connection to Inflation -/
 207
 208/-- RS and inflation are compatible:
 209
 210    1. Inflation is the MECHANISM for achieving flatness
 211    2. RS explains WHY flatness is the endpoint
 212    3. Together: Inflation is J-cost driven toward Ω = 1
 213
 214    The inflaton potential is constrained by J-cost optimization. -/

 216  "Inflation provides the dynamics",
 217  "RS provides the target (Ω = 1)",
 218  "J-cost shapes the inflaton potential",
 219  "Exit from inflation at exactly Ω = 1"
 220]
 221
 222/-! ## Implications -/
 223
 224/-- If RS is correct about flatness:
 225
 226    1. **Cosmological constant**: Must have specific value (ρ_Λ/ρ_c ~ 0.7)
 227    2. **Dark matter**: Must exist to achieve Ω = 1
 228    3. **Future**: Universe expands forever (flat geometry)
 229    4. **Origin**: Ledger geometry determines spacetime geometry -/
