The passage around this formula

…This is presented as the most speculative of the three scenarios, and deliberately anchored more thinly than the other two: it is a structural extrapolation of the fidelity gap this article has already established ( ρm\rho_m < ρh\rho_h ) rather than a claim built on a dedicated measurement of stratification itself, and no source cited in this article directly quantifies it.
