Sector-residual deep test (masked, repaired snapshot)

Generated: 2026-07-19T11:33:19.102779

SURVIVORSHIP BIAS: today's constituents backfilled. Relative IC only — not levels.

Pre-registered grade (mechanical)

Verdict: FAIL

Task 1 CLOSED — sector residual dead on deep evidence.

Reason: failed one or more pre-registered checks (see checks)
