246/-- The unique dimension with RS spinor structure AND 8-tick is D = 3.
247
248 This replaces the linking axiom with a Clifford algebra-based characterization.
249 The proof uses:
250 1. RS requires 8-tick = 2^D, so D must divide into 2³
251 2. RS requires non-abelian simple Spin(D)
252 3. Only D = 3 satisfies both -/
