Simultaneous switching for bounded bottom gates #
This module connects shared AC0 programs to the finite-family switching lemma.
It indexes by all g internal gates. Each eligible depth-one gate of fan-in at
most t is represented by its exact bounded DNF or CNF; every other index is
padded by a constant formula. Thus the union bound costs at most g, without
enumerating a subtype of gates or unfolding the shared circuit into a formula.
The public endpoint bounds the probability that any eligible internal gate's restricted scalar function lacks a shallow decision tree. This is the simultaneous bottom-layer estimate needed before an explicit gate-replacement construction.
Bounded bottom-AND membership is decidable from the stored line.

Every eligible bottom AND gate has a bounded DNF representation.
Every eligible bottom OR gate has a bounded CNF representation.

At an eligible AND gate, the padded formula computes the internal gate function.
At an eligible OR gate, the padded formula computes the internal gate function.
Restricting the padded AND formula agrees with semantic restriction of the internal gate function.
