Weak malnormality of all proper parabolics

This proves the implication needed from Charney--Martin--Morris-Wright, Acylindrical hyperbolicity for Artin groups with a visual splitting, Algebraic & Geometric Topology 26 (2026), Proposition 4.2, for the present Artin groups. A proper parabolic preserves a proper convex subtree. Two translates can be placed at the ends of a segment with trivial stabilizer. Their common stabilizer fixes that segment, hence is trivial.

    The two conjugates have trivial intersection; this is stronger than finiteness in the published weak-malnormality criterion.
