Commentary.
The two vectors (phi,1) and (phi-prime,1) form a basis of the real plane. Every vector therefore has unique coefficients in this basis, and the golden Lorentz form of a combination is exactly -5ab.
The displayed event and tangent are defined from positive exponential amplitudes divided by sqrt(5). The proof establishes sqrt(5)>0 internally, differentiates both event coordinates, and proves that the event remains on the unit Lorentz hyperbola.
Adding the tangent to the event cancels the conjugate direction; subtracting the event from the tangent cancels the future direction. The remaining amplitudes are strictly positive for every rapidity.
At zero rapidity all eight event laws give a concrete satisfying witness. Replacing the genuine tangent there by the zero vector falsifies the future-null identity, so the derivative clauses are not vacuous.
