bridge_functor_exists (axiom)

/-- [III.D71] **CONJECTURE-AXIOM — CONDITIONAL RESULTS DOWNSTREAM** Bridge functor existence for all `(bound, db)`. This is one of exactly three conjecture-axioms in TauLib; see also `spectral_correspondence_O3` (`BookIII.Doors.SpectralCorrespondence`) and `grand_grh_adelic` (`BookIII.Doors.GrandGRH`). **Conjectural scope.** At finite level, `bridge_functor_check bound db` is decidable and verifies the finite shadow of the bridge functor for every parameter pair `(bound, db)` with `bound ≤ 15` and `db ≤ 3` — hundreds of discrete checks, each closed in the kernel by `native_decide`. This axiom asserts that the finite check extends to the full universal statement `∀ bound db`. That extension is the conjectural content. **Downstream theorems are CONDITIONAL RESULTS.** Any theorem in TauLib whose transitive proof chain invokes `bridge_functor_exists` is conditional on the universal extension of the finite `bridge_functor_check`. Running `#print axioms ` on a downstream theorem will list `bridge_functor_exists` among its trusted assumptions — this is exactly the audit trail a Lean reader should expect, and it is what makes the conditional status of downstream results inspectable rather than hidden. **Preferred encoding (future work).** The Mathlib-community idiom for a conjectural dependency is to take the assumption as an explicit hypothesis on each downstream theorem rather than as a global axiom. Refactoring the downstream Book III theorems to take `bridge_functor_exists` (or a `(h : BridgeFunctorExists)` binder) as a hypothesis is planned for a future wave; this would make `#print axioms` reveal no unexplained axioms on unconditional theorems. Until then, the global `axiom` declaration is the encoding. -/
