One must prove that, regardless of the geometry, the imposed fixed charge
and the inside surface charge together produce a net E=0 throughout the
conducting material - **without the help or hindrance of the outside surface
charge**. If this is so, then the outer surface charge must always take
that unique configuration which, by itself, contributes E=0 in the
conducting material.
But the first statement must be proven, not merely stated. I have not yet
seen a rigorous proof of that statement - though I believe it is so.
