/--
A locally finite continuous-time queueing sample path with simple arrivals.

Jobs are indexed by `Nat` in strict arrival order. The finite set `arrivedBy t`
contains exactly the jobs whose arrival epoch is at most `t`. Requiring these
sets to be finite encodes local finiteness of arrivals. Departures need not occur
in arrival order, so this model does not impose FIFO.

The field `strictMono_arrival` excludes simultaneous or batch arrivals. The
field `arrival_nonneg` excludes jobs present before time zero while permitting
jobs to arrive at time zero. Since departure epochs are real numbers, every
indexed job has a finite departure time.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions.
