Corollary: any simplicial isomorphism between affine Coxeter complexes that lifts to an affine map of the ambient Euclidean spaces is a similitude with scaling factor $\mu > 0$ matching the ratio of chamber diameters.

Corollary: after normalizing each Euclidean metric by the chamber diameter, the simplicial isomorphism becomes a true isometry: $d_{A'}(f x, f y) = d_A(x, y)$.
