Convexity of xi regions with an affine second coefficient #

An ordinary mixture can fall below the desired xi coordinate. If every coefficient value has a witness with xi=1, a second mixture fills that gap while preserving the coefficient. No compactness or closure is assumed.

∃ (E : Copula 2), E.chatterjeeXi = x ∧ φ E = φ C

Every intermediate xi value is attained at the same coefficient value.

∃ (D : Copula 2), D.chatterjeeXi = x ∧ φ D = φ C

At any attained coefficient value, all xi values up to one are attained.

Convexity follows from actual copula witnesses, not from assuming xi is affine.
