Let H be an open coordinate half-space, and suppose f and its specified weak multi-derivative g are locally integrable with respect to the restriction of volume to H, including on compact sets meeting the boundary. If a globally smooth compactly supported test has all normal derivatives of orders strictly below the normal order of the specified multi-index equal to zero on the boundary hyperplane, then the weak integration-by-parts identity remains valid with this test. No conditions are imposed on other weak derivatives of f. When the normal order is zero, no boundary conditions are required. A proposed proof multiplies the test by interior normal cutoffs; Taylor vanishing controls every Leibniz error in a shrinking strip, and local integrability gives convergence. This general higher-order cutoff result is an Open proof obligation.

Independent analytic and calculus interfaces for the distributional justification; the weak-data boundary step is an additional cutoff argument, not attributed to the smooth calculation alone.
