    Abstract

    This submission formalizes the main proof of Bonnet, Feghali, Nguyen, Scott, Seymour, Thomassé, and Trotignon available at https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.06338. It internally proves the technical Theorem 3. Only its consequence, Theorem 2, and the result claimed in the title are exposed.
