Lemma: Agent18_KL2_20260911.two_switch_necessity
Starting with boundary (d,d,e,e), let a,b,d,e be duads. If the first switch uses any cross e/f endpoint pair and a is relevant for both d and e, the second switch uses any two distinct endpoints each having exactly-one membership in b at the intermediate boundary, and the final boundary has both aligned pairs disjoint, then a and b are disjoint, b is relevant for the original d and e, and the second pair also crosses e/f. The second e-end may repeat the first e-end. This is finite six-colour boundary algebra; it does not assert the existence of an actual graph path, a graph cover, universal KL2, or a proof of Berge–Fulkerson.
