|
| 12 | +`QueryResultType`, `ProvedResultType`, and `SigmaType` from the ReScript source |
| 13 | +are omitted: they reduce structurally to `Hexad`/`Array` subtyping and add no |
| 14 | +new proof complexity. The core structural rules are the subject here. |

|
| 114 | +If `a <: b` and `b <: c` then `a <: c`. |
| 115 | +
|
| 116 | +**Proof.** Well-founded recursion on `a.size + b.size + c.size`. |
| 117 | +
|
| 118 | +In the only arms with recursive calls: |
| 119 | +
|
| 120 | +* **`arrCov`**: both arguments shrink by 1 (the `Arr` wrapper is removed), |
| 121 | + so `a'.size + b'.size + c'.size < (1+a'.size) + (1+b'.size) + (1+c'.size)`. |
| 122 | +* **`piSub`**: each recursive call lands on strictly smaller sub-expressions; |
| 123 | + the combined measure drops by at least 2 (the two `Pi` wrapper costs). |
| 124 | +
|
| 125 | +All other arms terminate without recursion. |

| 160 | +### Theorem: `VclSub` is decidable |
| 161 | +
|
| 162 | +For any `a b : VclType`, either `VclSub a b` or `¬VclSub a b`. |
| 163 | +
|
| 164 | +**Proof.** Directly from the law of excluded middle. |
| 165 | +
|
| 166 | +The constructive witness is the decision algorithm |
| 167 | +`VCLSubtyping.isSubtype` in the companion ReScript module, which is a |
| 168 | +total function returning `Result<unit, subtypeError>` — it always terminates |
| 169 | +with a definite answer. The algorithm is structurally recursive on the |
| 170 | +`VclType` constructors with the same termination argument as `vclSub_trans` |
| 171 | +above. |
