Bridge: Nandao-Qs × Kernel Theory / Fragment Entry #
Connects the nandao-Q felicity data in Phenomena.Questions.NandaoQs to
the Mandarin Fragment entry and to the Kernel-theoretic felicity predicate
nandaoFelicitous from Theories.Semantics.Modality.Kernel.

theorem
Phenomena.Questions.NandaoQs.Bridge.fragment_data_evidential :
Fragments.Mandarin.QuestionParticles.nandao.requiresEvidentialBias = true ∧ ((List.filter (fun (x : NandaoDatum) => x.felicitous) allData).all fun (x : NandaoDatum) => x.evidentialBias) = true
The nandao Fragment entry's evidential bias requirement matches the empirical generalization: all felicitous nandao-Qs have evidential bias.
theorem
Phenomena.Questions.NandaoQs.Bridge.fragment_data_epistemic :
Fragments.Mandarin.QuestionParticles.nandao.requiresEpistemicBias = false ∧ (List.filter (fun (d : NandaoDatum) => d.felicitous && !d.epistemicBias) allData).length > 0
The nandao Fragment entry correctly does NOT require epistemic bias, matching the empirical finding that some felicitous nandao-Qs lack it.
