Every scenario exponential is strictly positive; multiplied by a nonnegative weight it is nonnegative, so its finite sum is nonnegative.

Mathematical statement

wω≥0  ⟹  Mγ(X)≥0w_\omega\ge0\implies M_\gamma(X)\ge0wω​≥0⟹Mγ​(X)≥0

What the Lean code literally says, in plain math · gpt-6

Independent mathematical reading. Assume each scenario weight is nonnegative. For every real loss and real sensitivity the exponential factor is strictly positive, so each weighted contribution is nonnegative and their finite sum is nonnegative. Total probability mass one is not needed for this inequality; some weights may all be zero.
