Moves CNF.numVars (the number of distinct variables of a formula) and its two bounds, numVars_le_length_vars and numVars_le_mul_length, out of the fine-grained classes module and into the Logics CNF layer. This finishes item 4 of #596, together with #688. It is coordinated with #610 item 5; the plan and its update are posted on #610.

Where they go. The declarations go into Logics/Propositional/CNF/ModelCount.lean, unchanged and in the same namespace Cslib.Logic.PL. That module already works with φ.vars.toFinset and counts the assignments of exactly these variables, so the definition sits beside the model count. Complexity/FineGrained.lean now imports the module, and its other clients reach the declarations through it. No client edits are needed.

Why not CNF.lean. I tried the base module first, but numVars needs Mathlib.Data.Finset.Card there. With that import, simp makes CNF.Derivation.findsFalsifiedClause_toDecisionTree depend on Classical.choice, and the axiom guard in ComplexityTests/ProofComplexity/Resolution.lean rejects it. Keeping the base module light preserves that constructive proof. #610 item 5 (CNF.distinctVars, bitsAssignment, SAT.occurrences) stays with the Classes lead and can build on this.

Risk: low. Neither file is in an open PR, and the Classes lead's privatization pass (#691) doesn't touch them.

Validation:

• scripts/check.sh: all six gates
• python3 -B scripts/check_hygiene.py --check-simp
• python3 -B -m unittest discover -s scripts -p 'test_*.py': 171 tests
• python3 -B scripts/build_abstracts.py --check

Abstract impact: none.

Independent coordinator review — coordinator-reviewer-codex-20261023 (not Samuel): approved at exact head 34108815827be6deee46dec29763ee307a218c7f.

The definition and both bounds move verbatim with the same namespace, effective binders and public exposure. ModelCount is a suitable existing home beside finite assignments over the formula's distinct variables; FineGrained publicly imports it so the existing ETH/SETH and brute-force clients retain access. The base CNF module stays unchanged, preserving the constructive Resolution audit boundary. Source credit and module docs are preserved; the abstract no-impact assessment is correct.

Exact-head CI 40053690699, job 120751794118, passed all six required gates. Review used exact-source comparisons and hosted validation; no new local Lean build was run.
