 Unipotent radical count for a symplectic parabolic subgroup

In row-block order $(W^{\prime },U,W)$ with dual bases, a unit-diagonal symplectic flag stabilizer satisfies $E=J_U{D}^T$ and $F-F^T=D{J}_U{D}^T$. The matrix $D$ is arbitrary. The latter right side is alternating, so each off-diagonal pair of entries of $F$ gives one free choice and each diagonal entry is free. ConsequentlyReversed dual-basis order inserts a reversal matrix but does not change the count. The argument holds in characteristic two without division by two.
