What the rule blocks is not where it splits

How much of the separating direction each probe carries, over 100 designs of 14 units whose admissible set is enumerated and split into two pieces. The deferral this field answers proposed the constraint's active set — which exchanges the tolerance box actually blocks — as a better probe than the design's own leverage, on the ground that leverage is a heuristic and the active set is the quantity. Modelled from the design and the tolerance, it reads 0.4272 against leverage's 0.5395, at 4.43 paired standard errors the wrong way. Counted exactly over the enumerated set — at a cost no trial can pay — it reads 0.3854, worse again. Both beat a random direction at 0.2622, so they are probes; neither beats the two the earlier field already had.

Each of the 14 units of one design, at the share of its exchanges the tolerance box blocks — computed from the design's columns and the tolerance under a uniform position in the box, against counted over all 116 admissible assignments. The diagonal is where the two would agree. Over 192 designs they agree about the ordering of the units at a correlation of 0.8141 ± 0.0112, negative on 0.5% of them, and disagree about the level: 0.8442 counted against 0.8170 modelled, a gap of 0.0272 ± 0.0051. An admissible assignment does not sit uniformly in its box, and this is the size of that.

How much of the separating direction each probe carries, over 100 designs of 14 units whose admissible set is enumerated and split in two. The four rows the pairing adds are the dominant direction of what each blocking matrix keeps past its degrees, and the cut that direction's signs induce. Counted, they read 0.5266 and 0.5258 against the counted per-unit share's 0.3854 — most of the gap between that share and the design's own leverage at 0.5395, closed. Modelled, they read 0.4274 and 0.4954 against 0.4272. Nothing built from the active set passes leverage, and the projected fourth power is still ahead of all of them at 0.6583.
