# samples and p90 the mean of the two largest; TTFT is long-tailed (batch
# formation / prefill queue position), so the rep-to-rep dispersion of these
# order statistics is inherently far above 4% even on an idle box at a fixed
# SHA/config/hardware (measured up to 10.58% with 0.1-0.3% mean noise).  A
# uniform 4% rule on max-dominated statistics makes the gate a coin flip.  15%
# clears the worst observed idle-box order-statistic noise with margin while
# still catching genuine contention (reproducible tail blowups are >=2x, e.g.
# the binding grid's c8 p99_itl 1.78x arm gap); mean axes stay the sensitive
# 4% contention detector (noise floor ~0.3%).  Tail MEDIANS are unchanged full
# binding comparison axes — only the per-run stability tolerance is relaxed.
MAX_TAIL_RUN_RELATIVE_DEVIATION = 0.15
# ACCEPTANCE noise band (distinct from the stability tolerances above).  The G3
# contract accepts "no STABLE regression": a packed deficit smaller than run
# noise cannot be established as a stable regression, so a comparison axis
# (median axis_pass, the gated per-rep paired axes, and every memory axis) FAILS
# only when the packed deficit exceeds this band.  Direction semantics are
# unchanged — the band applies to the DEFICIT side only; packed at-or-better than
# rollback (normalized ratio >= 1) always passes.
#
# Non-tail timing axes (throughput, request rate, mean/median of every timed
# latency) and ALL memory axes: 0.5% (ratio < 0.995 fails).  Grounding: the
# observed idle-box, fixed-SHA per-rep deviation ceiling across the four sealed
# runs is <=0.45%, so a deficit inside 0.5% is inside run noise (e.g. the run-4
# c2 throughput/TPOT/ITL/E2EL ratios at 0.9998-1.0008 and the 0.023% c16 PSS/RSS
# deltas — 5.7 MB of 24.9 GB, while packed uses 656 MiB LESS GPU memory), while a

# order statistics are single-sample-dominated; observed idle-box tail noise
# reaches 10.58%, so a deficit inside 15% (e.g. the pooled c2 TTFT tails at -5.9%,

# --- MAJORITY-CONSISTENCY paired gate (CLAIM-GDN-BA-ROUNDING-1) ---------------
# A gated per-rep paired axis (per concurrency, per axis name) FAILS only when
# ``>= PAIRED_GATE_BREACH_MAJORITY`` of its 5 rep-pairs breach the acceptance
# band in the SAME direction (packed-worse).  With five repetitions the breach
# majority is 3-of-5: two rep-pairs breaching is still a minority (leg-level run
# noise), three or more is a consistent direction.  A minority breach is
# leg-level run noise: single-leg excursions of +/-0.5-1% are routine across the
# sealed roots (run 4's whole rollback arm +0.8%, run 5's sign flip back), while
# the harness's own per-run stability rule tolerates +/-4% per rep — so a gate
# requiring EVERY single-pair trial inside the 0.5% non-tail band is internally
# inconsistent with the accepted per-rep variation and gives P(pass) ~ 0 even for
# identical engines (run 6 sealed complete-failed on exactly this: all median
# axes + memory PASS, stability PASS, correctness PASS, failing ONLY the gated
# paired axes inside a single c2 r1 rep-pair at ratios 0.9894-0.9916).  The
# normalized ratio is >=1-is-packed-better, so every recorded breach is
# packed-worse by construction; minority breaches stay in
# ``paired_normalized_ratios`` / ``paired_axis_pass`` as diagnostics.  Consistent
# regressions are still caught: run 4's c16 all-pairs packed-worse pattern
# (packed throughput [793.50, 793.28, 795.79] vs rollback [800.12, 798.30,
# 800.60]) breaches every pair in the same direction and still FAILS.

# upstream-faithful vLLM-mirrored prefill co-schedule lottery, NOT a scheduler
# divergence (``.agents/specs/scheduler-prefill-coschedule.md``).  Leg mixes flip
# 3/3 vs 6/0, so the per-rep TTFT aggregates (mean/median AND p90/p99) swing
# 4-24% while every throughput/TPOT/ITL/memory axis stays stable <=1.13% (and c2
# E2EL <=0.30%, measured across the three sealed roots).  Pooling the 30
# per-request samples per arm (5 reps x 6 requests) is the convergent estimator
# of that phase mixture and is symmetric across arms; c16 (96 samples/rep) is
# unaffected and keeps the per-run rules.

# inside 50% — while a hung/broken leg (5-10x) still voids.  This replaces the

# swing with the fast/slow SAMPLE COUNT, not with any engine difference: across
# the five sealed roots the pooled mean flips +/-9.10% and the pooled median
# +/-18.65% (the median exceeds even the 15% tail band), sign-flipping run to run
# (run 3 packed +5%, runs 4-5 packed worse).  No blanket band fixes a mixture
# flip, so the two pooled mean/median axes move to DIAGNOSTIC-only and the gate
# instead compares packed-vs-rollback FAST-mode means and SLOW-mode means
# SEPARATELY, cancelling the mixture-composition noise (like-mode to like-mode).
#
# Mode split: a fixed 675 ms threshold.  Across all five roots and both arms the
# fast cluster tops out at 534.4 ms and the slow cluster bottoms at 844.6 ms, so

# Observed within-run |rollback/packed - 1|: fast <= 4.35% (run 5), slow <= 1.57%
# (run 5); 2x gives 8.7% / 3.14%.  Both clear all five runs' observed noise with
# a 2x margin, and the 3.14% slow band still fails a genuine >=5% slow regression.
# (The literal "2x same-arm cross-run spread" reading — fast 12.18%, slow 6.22%
