Pointwise point-star slice inequality

Claim·§6.3 A second score forces positive rare mass·inside propRare point exceptions have positive mass

Statement (paper)

At a common level, for each point pp, with bpb_p the conditional bad-edge probability, ν=νH(p)\nu=\nu_{H(p)}, ζ=k−2\zeta=k^{-2} and τ(ν)=∥νA∥22+∥νB1∥22−1\tau(\nu)=\norm{\nu_A}_2^2+\norm{\nu_{B_1}}_2^2-1, one has dP(p)+τ(ν)≥λ4 2ρp(1−ρp)−C(bp+ζ) d_P(p)+\tau(\nu)\ge\frac\lambda4\,2\rho_p(1-\rho_p)-C(b_p+\zeta) for an absolute constant CC, where dP(p)d_P(p) is the common-level score at the ordinary point star of pp with full bit probability ρp\rho_p.

In plain English

At a common level, for each point pp, the point-star score dP(p)d_P(p) plus τ(ν)=∥νA∥22+∥νB1∥22−1\tau(\nu)=\norm{\nu_A}_2^2+\norm{\nu_{B_1}}_2^2-1 (with ν=νH(p)\nu=\nu_{H(p)}) is at least λ4 2ρp(1−ρp)\frac\lambda4\,2\rho_p(1-\rho_p) up to an error C(bp+ζ)C(b_p+\zeta), where bpb_p is the conditional bad-edge probability, ζ=k−2\zeta=k^{-2}, ρp\rho_p is the full bit probability of the ordinary point star of pp, and CC is absolute.

Why it's here

This gives a pointwise lower bound on the point-star score plus the slice term τ(ν)\tau(\nu) in terms of the bit variance 2ρp(1−ρp)2\rho_p(1-\rho_p), with errors only from bad edges and ζ\zeta. Under the smallness assumptions from the contradiction setup, averaging it should let the later claim bound the common point-star variation CPC_P by o(S)o(S), which is what forces positive rare mass in the proposition.
Classified routine:
A pointwise inequality inside the proof of the rare-mass proposition. It comes from a direct local calculation relating the point-star score and slice term to the bit variance 2ρp(1−ρp)2\rho_p(1-\rho_p), with errors from bad edges, using the paper's earlier definitions; it is bookkeeping rather than a new idea.
