Comparison against one fixed genuine real zero #
The witness and its actual zero are chosen before the target character. Induction is to the product of the levels, without a coprimality assumption. The diagonal is handled by equality of the naturally ordered L-series.
Equality on the natural numbers identifies actual L-values, even when the two character levels are different.
Combining the genuine residue lower bound with the subpower upper bound recovers the target's original L-value, retaining its induction loss.
One fixed primitive witness gives a uniform comparison for all distinct primitive targets; the fixed level is absorbed into the positive constant.
The same witness bounds every target. Equality of the natural character values uses its actual positive L-value, not an enumeration of conductors.
