  Threshold Uniqueness Proof (mechanized)

  Proves: If alpha > n/2, at most one value can achieve alpha votes
  among honest validators in any round.

  This eliminates the `unique_threshold` axiom in Safety.lean by
  providing a constructive counting argument using Finset intersection.

  Core argument:
  - Let S_v1 = honest nodes preferring v1, S_v2 = honest nodes preferring v2
  - Each honest node has exactly one preference (preference is a function)
  - |S_v1| >= alpha and |S_v2| >= alpha
  - S_v1 and S_v2 are disjoint (a node prefers exactly one value)
  - So |S_v1 ∪ S_v2| = |S_v1| + |S_v2| >= 2 * alpha > n
  - But |S_v1 ∪ S_v2| <= n (they're subsets of all nodes)
  - Contradiction: v1 = v2

  Maps to Go code:
  - protocol/wave/wave.go: Each node stores exactly one preference
  - core/dag/horizon.go: alpha threshold for round acceptance

  Section 1: Disjoint preference sets

  Honest nodes have at most one preference. So the sets
  "honest nodes preferring v1" and "honest nodes preferring v2"
  are disjoint when v1 ≠ v2.

  Section 2: The counting argument

  If two disjoint subsets of {0, ..., n-1} each have cardinality >= alpha,
  then their union has cardinality >= 2 * alpha.
  But the union is a subset of {0, ..., n-1} which has cardinality n.
  So 2 * alpha <= n, i.e., alpha <= n/2.
  Contrapositive: if alpha > n/2, the subsets cannot both have cardinality >= alpha
  unless they are the same set (i.e., v1 = v2).

  Section 3: Main theorem -- mechanized unique_threshold

  If alpha > n/2, two distinct values cannot both achieve alpha votes
  among honest validators. This replaces the axiom in Safety.lean.

/-- MAIN THEOREM: Unique threshold from quorum intersection.
    If alpha > n/2, at most one value can reach alpha honest supporters.
    This is a direct consequence of the pigeonhole principle on disjoint sets. -/

/-- Corollary matching the exact signature of the Safety.lean axiom.
    The condition alpha > 2*k/3 with honest majority implies alpha > n/2
    when the honest count exceeds 2f and f < n/3.

    This is the bridge: BFT parameters (f < n/3, alpha > 2k/3) imply
    the alpha > n/2 condition needed for unique_threshold_proven. -/
