The four-variable polynomial witness
The identities hold for every positive integer order in the cited proof. A finite table of moments illustrates them; it does not prove the all-orders claim.

For j = 1,2 put and . Set and . For every m ≥ 1, and .
A different witness: degree three with four real coordinates. The lower-dimensional quartic does not replace this degree statement.
