- Replace the chord-apex TODO with a full proof by contradiction: assume
merged != spike, define X, Y, Z, W, lift to G' so that the externals
inherit \psi(f) = (X, Y, Z, W, W), and split on W in {X, Z}. Either case
meets the hypothesis of lem:pentagonal-externals, which extends \psi to a
proper 3-edge-colouring of G' --- contradicting non-3-edge-colourability
via Tait.
- Add fig:chord-apex-proof: the assumed reduced-dual colouring on top, and
the two lifted-G' cases (W=Z, W=X) below, rendered on the dodecahedron.
- Add experiments/draw_chord_apex_proof.py.
