{title2=$dB_t=\int_t^{t+dt}b(\tau)\,d\tau$}

For a broadband bosonic input with $[b(t),b^\dagger(s)]=\delta(t-s)$, disjoint field increments commute and $[dB_t,dB_t^\dagger]=dt$. An adapted system operator commutes with the next incoming increment. Noise increments scale as $\sqrt{dt}$, so quadratic products contribute to first-order stochastic evolution.
