"""v15 -- A1: D5 (+) A3 is the UNIQUE familyful E8 glue (bootstrap classification).
E8 is the unique even unimodular rank-8 lattice. Its two-factor root-lattice
gluings L1 (+) L2 (rank 8) that admit a *cyclic* glue group are classified by
the requirement that the two discriminant forms be anti-isometric, hence the
discriminant groups isomorphic and cyclic. Among these, exactly one is
"familyful" in the TFPT sense:
* one factor is D_g with a 16-dimensional half-spinor (2^(g-1)=16 => g=5),
* the other is A_m giving exactly N_fam=3 families (rank A_m = m = 3),
which forces D5 (+) A3, with glue group Z4 (=|mu4|). No other cyclic-glue
two-factor decomposition of E8 (E6+A2, E7+A1, A4+A4, D8, A8) satisfies both.
