  "analysis": "For each role, compare its two actions with other roles fixed. Retain team damage and individual reward changes. On original-map feints, compute expected damage from the product of each role's actual pre-choice probabilities. Attribute the online-minus-frozen expected difference by averaging marginal replacements over all six role orders (Shapley decomposition). Average rounds within seed, then the 32 historical seeds.",

    "Outcome-table maxima are offline diagnostic upper bounds, not fair deployable baselines.",
    "The decomposition accounts for changed probabilities within this outcome table. It does not identify the causal learning mechanism that changed them.",

    "No player labels or counterfactual outcomes enter live learning. Core, rewards, stats, observation rules and shipped gameplay remain unchanged."
