Arbitrarily tight rounded support envelopes #
The quantitative support-envelope estimate becomes an arbitrary open neighborhood estimate after choosing the smoothing and rounding scales. We record an explicit choice that remains valid even for one-point finite sets, where the logarithmic cardinality term vanishes.

Every nonempty finite convex hull has positive log-sum-exp smoothing and rounding scales whose open envelope contains the hull while the closure of that envelope stays in a prescribed metric thickening.

The tight-envelope parameters simultaneously give a smooth, periodic, everywhere regular support curve.
