ActualLyndonDirections
Abstract
Actual Lyndon words index independent directions in the full positive-pair family.
For each length r, ActualLyndonWord is the subtype of actual words of length r that satisfy IsLyndon. The module publicly installs a lifted linear order on this subtype and, for finite A, a Fintype instance obtained by injection into length-r vectors. These two anonymous public instances support the cardinality and deterministic selection below; the digit construction itself is a repository result, not a claim attributed to the cited paper.

Commentary.
For linearly ordered A and r:N, ActualLyndonWord A r is the subtype of lists w with w.length=r and IsLyndon w.

Commentary.
For finite linearly ordered A, actualLyndonCount A r is Fintype.card (ActualLyndonWord A r), not an independent proxy parameter.

Commentary.
For each r, selectedDirection chooses one PositivePairIndex A r for every element of Fin(actualLyndonCount A r), with the resulting actualLeadingDifference family linearly independent over Q.
