theorem outer_Ioc (a b : ℝ) : f.outer (Ioc a b) = ofReal (f b - f a) := by
  /- It suffices to show that, if `(a, b]` is covered by sets `s i`, then `f b - f a` is bounded
    by `∑ f.length (s i) + ε`. The difficulty is that `f.length` is expressed in terms of half-open
    intervals, while we would like to have a compact interval covered by open intervals to use
    compactness and finite sums, as provided by `length_subadditive_Icc_Ioo`. The trick is to use
    the right-continuity of `f`. If `a'` is close enough to `a` on its right, then `[a', b]` is
    still covered by the sets `s i` and moreover `f b - f a'` is very close to `f b - f a`
    (up to `ε/2`).
    Also, by definition one can cover `s i` by a half-closed interval `(p i, q i]` with `f`-length
    very close to that of `s i` (within a suitably small `ε' i`, say). If one moves `q i` very
    slightly to the right, then the `f`-length will change very little by right continuity, and we
    will get an open interval `(p i, q' i)` covering `s i` with `f (q' i) - f (p i)` within `ε' i`
    of the `f`-length of `s i`. -/
