Q26: the epistemic measure is a disintegration, not a definition #

Plain-language, CSD-role and formal statements of the epistemic measure, with
this module — the disintegration identification — as its Lean anchor. Kept
symmetric by scripts/check-glossary.sh.
GlobalBasin.lean TAKES the isolation-conditioned epistemic state to be
δ_p ⊗ Haar — a modelling choice stated as a definition, because conditioning
on a preparation conditions on a μ_FS-null set. This module proves the
theorem a careful reader asks for: that choice is the unique one the arena's
own measure makes. The Liouville measure kMuL = μ_FS ⊗ vol disintegrates
along the base projection, and its disintegration kernel is μ_FS-almost
everywhere the constant Haar kernel — so δ_p ⊗ Haar is the fibre of the
disintegration, planted at its base point, not a stipulation.

kMuL_disintegration— the reassembly, inμ_FSterms:kMuL = μ_FS ⊗ₘ (kMuL).condKernel.
The a.e. qualifier is intrinsic: a disintegration kernel is only ever
determined up to a null set of base points, so "exactly δ_p ⊗ Haar, for
every single p" is not a meaningful strengthening — the almost-everywhere
form IS the theorem.

The base marginal of the Liouville measure is the Fubini–Study measure
— the c = 1 bridge read as a marginal.
The Liouville measure is the composition product of its base marginal with the CONSTANT Haar kernel on the fibre.
★★ The disintegration kernel of the Liouville measure is Haar on the
fibre, μ_FS-almost everywhere: the identification that turns
GlobalBasin's δ_p ⊗ Haar from a modelling choice into the fibre of the
arena's own disintegration.
★★ The epistemic measure IS the disintegration fibre (Q26): for
μ_FS-almost every base point p, the isolation-conditioned epistemic state
δ_p ⊗ Haar equals the Dirac mass at p paired with the Liouville measure's
own disintegration kernel at p.
★ The reassembly: the Liouville measure disintegrates over the Fubini–Study base with its own conditional kernel.
