G001 — Mutually exclusive tagged categories have ordered sizes=[]. Give (total choices, each prefix’s total), retaining an empty list.
Definition and scope
Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
declared finite tagged choices or full-product protocol
After
combinatorial counts,not probabilities or independence
Conditions: none
Addition uses disjoint tags and multiplication uses the declared full cross-stage protocol;neither is a probability-independence assumption.
Step identifiers and dependencies
Rule: finite_counting_protocol_scope · Uses: G001
S002 · implies
Before
ordered sizes=[]
After
initial accumulator=0
Conditions: none
The empty disjoint sum is0;the empty full product is1,representing one empty choice sequence.

Rule: counting_prefix_initial · Uses: G001, S001
Reverse checks
S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
Result
(0, [])
The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
