The surviving conclusion is a quasi-isometry from a word metric for a possibly infinite generating set of a group. Finite generation cannot be asserted. Choose and so that is -dense; the cobounded group action hypothesis provides such a choice. Put
This set is symmetric because . The metric geodesic subdivision argument in the next part gives
In particular generates . Apply the same estimates to to obtain the two-sided bounds for the orbit map; its image is -dense. Thus a cobounded isometric action on a metric geodesic space admits an orbit quasi-isometry for a suitable, possibly infinite, generating set. This is the cobounded orbit map lemma.
Infinite stabilizers cause no obstruction to these bounds: all their nonidentity elements belong to and have length one, although their orbit displacement is zero. The additive constant permits precisely this collapse. For example, every group acts coboundedly on a point; its complete Cayley graph for is bounded, but the group need not be finitely generated.
