Explanation legend Lean4 Domain Explanation Language (L4DEL)
L4DEL explanations are a separate layer. They do not change the Lean source. Intuition is explanatory prose; numbered items are a reading path; sources link the wording back to evidence.

Erdos660.erdos_660Let $x_1, \ldots, x_n \in \mathbb{R}^3$ be the vertices of a convex polyhedron sorry line 56 sourceSource documentation
Let $x_1, \ldots, x_n \in \mathbb{R}^3$ be the vertices of a convex polyhedron. Are there at least $$(1 - o(1)) \frac{n}{2}$$ many distinct distances between the $x_i$?
The $(1 - o(1)) \frac{n}{2}$ lower bound is formalised as: for every $\varepsilon > 0$, every set of $n$ vertices of a convex polyhedron with $n$ sufficiently large determines at least $(1 - \varepsilon) \frac{n}{2}$ distinct distances.
