However, we start by presenting the result for the Bellman consistency operator because it is commonly studied in the prior RL theory literature on accelerating value iteration [1, 31, 37, 38] and because the analysis in the Bellman consistency setup will serve as a good conceptual stepping stone towards the analysis in the Bellman optimality setup.
