+||| Layer 5 — the end-to-end ABI SOUNDNESS CERTIFICATE for Eclexiaiser.
+|||
+||| Each prior layer proved one facet of the ABI contract in isolation:
+|||
+|||   * Layer 2 (`Eclexiaiser.ABI.Semantics`) — the flagship *conservation*
+|||     property of cost accounting, with the positive-control budget witness
+|||     `withinEx : WithinBudget 10 [3, 4]`.
+|||   * Layer 3 (`Eclexiaiser.ABI.Invariants`) — the deeper *monotonicity*
+|||     invariant, witnessed concretely by
+|||     `monotoneStepEx : LTE (totalCost [3,4]) (totalCost ([3,4] ++ [5]))`.
+|||   * Layer 4 (`Eclexiaiser.ABI.FfiSeam`) — soundness of the ABI<->FFI seam,
+|||     whose unambiguity guarantee is `resultToIntInjective`.
+|||
+||| This capstone ties the whole chain — manifest -> ABI proofs (flagship +
+||| invariant) -> FFI seam — into ONE inhabited value. The record `ABISound`
+||| bundles those three independently-proven facts as fields, and
+||| `abiContractDischarged` constructs it *only* from the real exported
+||| witnesses/theorems of the prior layers. Nothing here re-proves a domain
+||| theorem: it is pure composition. If any prior layer were unsound — a missing
+||| budget witness, a broken monotonicity bound, a non-injective wire encoding —
+||| this value would simply fail to typecheck, so the certificate's mere
+||| existence is the end-to-end soundness statement.

+-- The end-to-end ABI soundness certificate
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+||| `ABISound` is the conjunction of the key proven facts of this ABI, one field
+||| per layer. To inhabit it you must supply a genuine witness for each:
+|||
+|||   * `flagship`  — the Layer-2 budget-compliance witness on the canonical
+|||                   positive-control ledger (conservation / budget side).
+|||   * `invariant` — the Layer-3 monotonicity bound on a concrete ledger
+|||                   (appending a step never decreases total cost).
+|||   * `ffiSeam`   — the Layer-4 seam-injectivity theorem: distinct ABI
+|||                   outcomes never collide on the C wire.

+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+||| THE CAPSTONE. A single inhabited value of `ABISound`, assembled entirely
+||| from the existing exported proofs of Layers 2-4:
+|||
+|||   * `withinEx`             (Eclexiaiser.ABI.Semantics)
+|||   * `monotoneStepEx`       (Eclexiaiser.ABI.Invariants)
+|||   * `resultToIntInjective` (Eclexiaiser.ABI.FfiSeam)
+|||
+||| This typechecks iff all three layers are sound together — the full ABI
+||| contract discharged in one place.
