The tested Pauli loop supplies the second primitive Z estimate #
The actual constant Pauli-Z loop compares both players' complete projected answer alphabets. Combining it with Bob's extracted Z guarantee and the exact computational-readout mirror yields Alice's Z guarantee. No additional extraction hypothesis is needed when starting Bob's induction.
Stated in a bipartite model (Phase 4 of planning/mipco-track.md): the register state is the
register model Ξ.reg (ι → F) of a normalized auxiliary model Ξ, the strategy is a pair of
POVM families of matrices over ι → F with entries in Ξ's algebras, and the honest
computational readout enters as smulKron 1 _ for either player. Its exact mirror is the vector
identity coarseZ_registerState_mirror, which turns the cross-party distance to the readout on
Bob's side into Alice's same-side error (xSqNorm_eq_stateSqNorm_of_mirror).
Actual loop consistency transfers the primitive Z estimate to Alice, including the malformed Pauli outcome.
