Finiteness of IsScalarTower #
We prove that given IsScalarTower F K A, if A is finite as a module over F then
A is finite over K, and
(as long as A is Noetherian over F and we have NoZeroSMulDivisors K A) K is finite over F.
In particular these conditions hold when A, F, and K are fields.
The formulas for the dimensions are given elsewhere by Module.finrank_mul_finrank.

tower law
In a tower of field extensions A / K / F, if A / F is finite, so is K / F.
(In fact, it suffices that A is a nontrivial ring.)
Note this cannot be an instance as Lean cannot infer A.
Alias of Module.Finite.left.
