No natural is strictly below itself, with strict order fully expanded.
Direct prerequisites: add_succ_left, no_succ_add_fixed. The authored body proceeds by case analysis (1).

Formal native tactic body
Dependencies are hypotheses of the historical Alpha-v12 body receipt. The complete historical Alpha-v18 proof bundle independently checks every dependency; current Alpha v25 preserves that checked theorem use without changing Stable membership.

Proof checkpoints
This is a reading aid, not a new proof or a proof-tree certificate. Checkpoint groups are consecutive commands, not inferred branch boundaries. Every step links to the preserved script.
