//! The **proof-rewrite 2-cells** — independent refutation steps commute, and the commutation squares
//! make the space of proof-orderings a *contractible* `CAT(0)` cube complex. This is the honest higher
//! structure the symmetry tower pointed at, and it is genuine 2-dimensional homotopy: not a faked `π₂`,
//! but the **coherence theorem** for proofs — every way of reordering independent steps is coherently
//! the same, up to all higher homotopies.
//!
//! ## The structure
//!
//! A refutation is a DAG: each step derives a clause from earlier ones. Steps with no dependency
//! either way are **independent** — swapping two adjacent independent steps yields another valid
//! refutation (checked here against the real PR checker, which is the oracle). The rewrites are the
//! 1-cells; the **commutation squares** (two disjoint independent swaps done in either order reach the
//! same ordering) are the **2-cells**.
//!
//! Model the executions as a cube complex: vertices = order ideals (the reachable "states"), edges =
//! single steps, and a `k`-cube for every set of `k` pairwise-independent steps enabled at a state.
//! Three facts, all checked:
//!
//! 1. **Connected** (`π₀ = 1`): any ordering is reachable from any other by commutation moves.
//! 2. **The cube condition** (Gromov flagness): every pairwise-independent enabled set is jointly a
//!    cube — so the complex is `CAT(0)`, hence (Cartan–Hadamard) contractible.
//! 3. **Euler characteristic `χ = 1`**: the contractibility invariant, computed cell by cell.
//!
//! ## Why this is the same mathematics as concurrency
//!
//! This *is* the Mazurkiewicz-trace / higher-dimensional-automata model: independent proof steps
//! commute exactly as independent concurrent operations commute, and the contractible cube complex is
//! the trace's domain. The homotopy theory of proofs and the homotopy theory of concurrent execution
//! are one theory — the same 2-cells that certify "reordering independent proof steps doesn't matter"
//! certify "interleaving independent concurrent ops is deterministic." The symmetry group still acts:
//! `Aut(F)` permutes this contractible complex, and the homotopy quotient is again `K(Aut(F), 1)` — the
//! recursion closes.
