Question 699: Nonsufficiency, Zero Mass, Identity and Constant Statistics Need Separate Checks

Original question and givens

Use complete theta labels=[a23, b23], samples=[230, 231, 232, 233], aligned exact probability rows=[[[2, 5], [1, 10], [2, 5], [1, 10]], [[1, 10], [2, 5], [1, 10], [2, 5]]] and total statistic=[0, 0, 0, 0]. Each theta law is normalized. Fibers partition the full sample carrier, retaining zero-mass cells. Mode=constant. Give (mode, fiber_invariance_rows, sufficient, zero_mass_cells, nonsufficiency_witness_or_null, injective_statistic, constant_statistic, theta_laws_equal, constant_equivalence_if_applicable, factorization_or_quality_claim, boundary).

Definition and scope

One positive-mass fiber with differing conditional laws refutes sufficiency. An injective statistic is sufficient; a constant one exactly when all laws agree; zero-mass cells stay null.
