Audit review

The paper’s Theorem 1.3 states exactly the solver’s target claim and proves it by: (i) showing a dense Gδ/full-measure set of good fibers via the upper semicontinuous fiber map and Lusin’s theorem (Lemma 3.2) ; (ii) establishing an interior-saturation property for minimal centers under either incontractibility or local Bronstein with an invariant measure (Proposition 3.4 and Lemma 3.5) ; and (iii) building infinite independence sets using the Ellis group of the maximal equicontinuous factor together with an open evaluation map and a measure/thickness lemma (Theorem 2.10, Lemma 4.4, and Claim 4.5) . The candidate solution follows the same three pillars (good fibers, interior saturation, Ellis-group construction). Its “Haar thickness” lemma and lifting argument are close in spirit to the paper’s Lemma 4.4 + Claim 4.5 mechanism, differing only in presentation. Minor phrasing imprecisions (e.g., describing E(Y) vs. Y) do not affect correctness. Overall, both are correct and substantially the same approach.

Referee report (LaTeX)

\textbf{Recommendation:} minor revisions

\textbf{Journal Tier:} strong field

\textbf{Justification:}

The paper proves a strong IT-set-in-fiber theorem under incontractibility or local Bronstein plus an invariant measure, using a novel synthesis of hyperspace minimal centers, interior saturation, and Ellis-group combinatorics. The logic is sound, the implications for regularity and independence are significant, and the results connect to and partially resolve contemporary conjectures. Minor clarifications would further polish the presentation.
