The theoretical result for the ratio $r=\Bigg(\frac{dσ_{diff}}{dt}\Bigg)^{pHe}_{t=0} \Bigg/ \Bigg(\frac{dσ_{diff}}{dt}\Bigg)^{pp}_{t=0}=6.8 ÷7.6$ is close to the value $r=7.1 \pm 0.75$ which we extracted from the FNAL data. These are the only $A>2$ data of this kind. The comparison provides the first confirmation of the cross-section fluctuation approach to the description of the absolute value of the inelastic diffraction cross-section off nuclei. It provides also a new constraint on the first 4 cumulants of the cross-section distribution.10 pages, revtexNuclear Theorytext
