Preservation through a complete actual advice-bit step #
When the old transcript fixes the incoming tampered state, an entire actual flip-flop execution preserves near-uniformity for arbitrary honest and tampered advice bits. The result retains the complete two-pass transcript, the actual tampered final output, and the original full left state. Every refresh rereads the original right source.
The two checked half-steps use complementary selection bits. Observing the
first tampered refresh leaves exact normalized factors, multiplies the left
envelope total by D^4, and multiplies the right total by C^3. The second
half therefore applies to a derived refreshed-state guarantee, with no new
source or security assumption. The fourfold incoming-error coefficient
accounts for both correlated repairs and their actual retained marginals.
This is the finite preservation step after advice strings first differ in
Chattopadhyay--Goyal--Li Algorithm 2 and Lemma 6.9, Section 6.3:

programs and conservative finite error accounting. The complete induction
through arbitrary advice words is adviceCorrelationBreaker_dist_le.
A full step preserves uniformity against the actual observed transcript when the old transcript fixes the tampered incoming state, for arbitrary current selection bits.
