The passage around this formula
…saying explicitly why. [] does not come from a new term added to any Hamiltonian; it comes from how already-unitary translation and boost operators compose. Each operator in the product T()G()T(-)G(-) conserves probability on its own, and the product of unitaries is unitary regardless of whether the factors commute, so the loop as a whole still conserves probability and leaves every expectation value of energy and momentum exactly where an ordinary,…
