  2    Dhall → Lean Embedding (Core)
  3    ==============================
  4    
  5    The key insight: Dhall normalization = Lean's rfl.
  6    We demonstrate this with simple intrinsically-typed terms.

111  ## §4 The Dhall Connection
112  
113  Dhall is System Fω, which includes STLC.
114  Every Dhall expression (in the simply-typed fragment) corresponds 
115  to a `Term` here. Dhall's normalization = our `eval`.
116  Dhall's `assert : x === y` = our `rfl` proofs.
117  
118  The key insight:
119  - Dhall programs are total (no infinite loops)
120  - Dhall normalization is decidable  
121  - Therefore Dhall equality = definitional equality
122  - Therefore Dhall proofs = Lean's rfl
123  
124  This is the **rfl nexus**: Dhall's computational equality
125  flows directly into Lean's type theory.
126  
127  For BUILD.dhall files:
128  1. Parse → untyped AST
129  2. Typecheck → `Term Γ τ` (or error)
130  3. Evaluate → value (by rfl)
131  
132  If step 2 succeeds, step 3 is guaranteed.
133  The build configuration is machine-verified.
