ALL DONE

Verdict: V2/V3 caps cut maxDD ~2.4pp (-33.5%/-33.7% vs -36.2%) but cost ~0.02�0.03 SR and ~2-5x residual lag; V4 sector-neutral drops to 0.99 SR. Improvement is marginal DD-cost tradeoff only -> not sufficient for adoption (pre-registered bar requires clean SR/bootstrap win). Keep live rule; EQMOM_SECTOR_NEUTRAL=1 remains the only production gate if we want this seasonally.
