+||| Flagship semantic correctness proof for julianiser.
+|||
+||| julianiser auto-wraps Python/R data pipelines into Julia. The headline
+||| correctness obligation is that the GENERATED Julia code computes exactly
+||| the same value as the ORIGINAL source code. This module discharges that
+||| obligation for a small but faithful arithmetic + array-indexing expression
+||| language.
+|||
+||| Two evaluators are defined over a single AST:
+|||   * `evalSrc`   — the Python/R source semantics (0-based array indexing)
+|||   * `evalJulia` — the translated Julia semantics, evaluated against the
+|||                   AST produced by `translate` (1-based array indexing)
+|||
+||| The flagship theorem `translatePreserves` proves, for EVERY expression and
+||| EVERY environment, that
+|||
+|||     evalSrc env e = evalJulia env (translate e)
+|||
+||| as a genuine propositional equality. This is non-vacuous: the array-index
+||| case forces `translate` to shift Python's 0-based index `n` to Julia's
+||| 1-based index `S n` (mirroring `IndexRemapCorrect` in Types.idr). A
+||| translation that FORGOT this shift would make the theorem unprovable — the
+||| adversarial check exploits exactly this.

+||| A small arithmetic expression language with array indexing. This is the
+||| shared surface syntax that both the Python/R front end and the Julia back
+||| end agree on at the AST level. The `n` parameter is the length of the array
+||| environment, so indices are statically in-bounds (`Fin n`) and array access

+

+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+||| The Julia-side AST. Structurally identical to `Expr`, but the index
+||| constructor carries a `JuliaIdx` wrapper to make the 1-based re-basing
+||| explicit and auditable: a `JuliaIdx` is built ONLY by `toJulia`, which

+||| Evaluate a Julia AST. The Julia program runs against the SAME underlying

+||| and reads it — modelling that Julia's 1-based `arr[k+1]` and Python's
