Solution

iv
Continuity of a nonnegative event-time distribution excludes an atom at zero, so
F(0)=1,H(0)=0.​
(1)
The integrated hazard value follows directly from an integral over an empty interval. If a different model allowed an atom at zero, the first conclusion would require modification; that is not the continuous model used here.
