Descriptor-support monotonicity

Lemma 5.1 (Descriptor-support monotonicity). For every effective oriented horizontal move RR, DescSupp⁡(RH)⊆DescSupp⁡(H).\operatorname{DescSupp}(RH)\subseteq\operatorname{DescSupp}(H). Every coinitial horizontal/garbage-descriptor branching is therefore a strict naturality square modulo garbage.
