 181/-! ## The Classical Limit -/
 182
 183/-- In the classical limit (high T, many states), the sum becomes an integral:
 184
 185    Z = ∫ d³q d³p / h³ exp(-βH(q,p))
 186
 187    The factor h³ comes from the 8-tick phase space discretization! -/

 189    -- As T → ∞ and states become dense:
 190    -- Σ → ∫ d³q d³p / h³

 195
 196/-- For indistinguishable particles, we need:

 199    Z_FD = Π_k (1 + exp(-β(E_k - μ)))
