Switch-sandwich main: left-to-middle transfer #
The left-to-middle transfer estimate used in prop:switch-sandwich, bounding the gap between
the left and middle expressions via the Cauchy–Schwarz-based gap bounds: the counterpart of
MIPRE/Background/LIDT/MIPStarRE/LDT/Preliminaries/SwitchSandwichMain/LeftTransfer.lean in the
port of planning/c6b-plan.md (milestone M3, section "Port conventions").
The state ψ : QuantumState (ι × ι) becomes a symmetric model S : SymModel 𝔓 K and the
placements leftTensor, rightTensor become S.L, S.R. The vendored normalization
hypothesis hψ : ψ.IsNormalized is dropped: it is a theorem of the model
(ev_one_of_isNormalized), and the gap bounds question_switchSandwich_left_gap and
question_switchSandwich_middle_gap no longer take it. The proof is the vendored one: both gaps
through the intermediate term E_x ∑ₐ ev(Aₐ B ⊗ Aₐ), each averaged by
avgOver_abs_le_sqrt_of_pointwise, and the triangle inequality.

Left-to-middle transfer estimate used in the switch-sandwich theorem:
|E_x ∑ₐ ev(Aₐ B Aₐ ⊗ I) - E_x ∑ₐ ev(B ⊗ Aₐ)| ≤ 2√δ when A ⊗ I ≈_δ I ⊗ A.
