Retained formal statement2 of 3

If G is a finite abelian group then there cannot exist an exact covering of G by more than one cosets of different sizes? (i.e. each element is contained in exactly one of the cosets.)

The proof uses `sorry`: part of the argument is written but not proved. Lean accepts the file; it does not accept the theorem.
