The passage around this formula

The shape difference between these two promises is the entire point of separating them. ϵL(t)\epsilon_L(t) is bounded in [0,1] and can, in principle, hit its floor abruptly once decoupling sets in. Var⁡\operatorname{Var}g^\hat g has no upper bound and shrinks only as fast as FQF_Q grows, which — as the next two sections show — need not be abrupt at all. A reader who asks “has the black hole given it back?” is asking two different kinds of question depending on which object they mean, and conflating them is precisely the failure mode this construction is built to prevent.
