I upvoted the article, because I like this definition (i.e., it corresponds well to how I think of Occam's Razor), and I think you've proven it. However, I agree with Oscar Cunningham that the statement at the top of your article is different, and you didn't prove it. In particular, I don't like the phrase 'on average'.
