Tightness of a finite family of finite measures #

Mathlib's MeasureTheory.isTightMeasureSet_singleton says that a single finite measure on a complete second-countable pseudo-metrizable space is tight, and IsTightMeasureSet.union says that tightness survives a binary union. Together they give tightness of any finite set of finite measures, which is the form the Prokhorov extraction arguments need in order to discard the finitely many exceptional members of a family for which a uniform tail bound is unavailable.

A finite set of finite measures is tight. Singletons are tight and tightness is closed under unions; the empty case routes through an arbitrary singleton, as Mathlib has no dedicated empty-set tightness lemma.

A family of finite measures indexed by a finite type has tight range.
