At level , the dyadic cells fully contained in are disjoint. Their occupied indicators are independent by the preceding part, and every cell has length , so each has success probability
Their sum therefore satisfies
If there are no fully contained cells, and this means the deterministic zero count. The binomial law follows directly from independence of occupation indicators, without assuming that the full counts are already Poisson.
