Verdicts
Two different populations, both from the same replay: one counts decisions, the other counts window returns.
Stayed in range
PASS (100% of 522520)
threshold 70% · n = 522,520 replay decisions
Beat holding
PASS (100% of 60)
threshold 50% · n = 60 window returns, floor 30
Against doing it yourself
Same driver, same tape, same costs — only the decision function differs. Here that is mint once at the same width, never touch it (passive_policy).

What it did, and what it would have done
Two different runs. The live loop recorded rather than signed.

Things this number does not know (3)
- This is a replay, not a record. The policy was run over this pool's real trade history; no capital was deployed and no position existed. Published as assumption A6.
- Adverse selection is reported as an upper bound (assumption A10): the measure is non-negative for every swap regardless of who traded, so it folds reversion round trips into what it calls adverse selection.
- Liquidity providers keep 66% of every fee on this pool — the protocol takes 34% (assumption P-1). Every fee figure here is net of that.
