        // KEY STRUCTURAL INSIGHT at n=8:
        //   43 has appeared 4 times (eps 1,2,5,8) — the highest raw frequency in the dataset.
        //   This is a material signal I cannot dismiss. The recency-weighted freq will still
        //   weight it reasonably now that ep8 is included. Gap after ep8 = 0, giving it
        //   the maximum recency spike bonus.

        // v11 changes vs v10:
        //   1. Recency tier 1 weight: 0.35 → 0.40 (restore; ep8 showed gap=0 numbers 5,7,25,43
        //      — the model failed partly by not amplifying recency enough for 25 vs 27 in zone 4)
        //   2. Recency tier 2 weight: 0.20 → 0.25 (bump; gap=1 numbers 4 and 20 are historically
        //      productive picks and I want the model to surface them from their zones)
        //   3. Frequency scale factor: 14.0 → 13.0 (slight reduction; 42 was over-dominating
        //      zone 6 due to high recency-weighted freq, blocking 43 which has higher raw freq)
        //   4. Gap bonus weight: 0.08 → 0.07 (minimal tweak; "overdue" signal remains weak)
        //   5. Parity nudge: 0.5 (unchanged; odd rate across 8 draws continuing to be measured)
        //   6. Zone proximity scale: 1.2 (unchanged)
        //   7. Add explicit "high-raw-frequency" bonus: numbers that appear in top 3 raw freq
        //      get a small flat bonus of 0.30. This corrects for recency-weighting penalizing
        //      historically frequent numbers whose appearances skew old. Raw freq is meaningful.
