I’m retaining the balanced candidate, documenting the falsifiable mechanism, and doing final reproducibility/validity checks.

The latter would mostly select abundant generic\\n+web prose and omit rarer registers.\\n+\\n+# Mechanism\\n+\\n+The structural score suppresses navigation, commerce, duplicated lines, short UI\\n+fragments, URLs, and malformed/non-prose text. A smooth weighted round-robin then\\n+prevents any one predicted register from consuming the prefix used by the token\\n+packer. Independently of final perplexity, I predict that the packed prefix has\\n+(1) fewer boilerplate phrases and repeated lines than a random 12M-token sample,\\n+and (2) materially higher rates of encyclopedia signatures, news-attribution\\n+language, and programming/Q&A markup, with no target domain absent.\\n+\\n+# Falsification\\n+\\n+The hypothesis is falsified if, at equal token count, the selected prefix does\\n+not reduce the stated boilerplate/repetition statistics or does not increase the\\n+three rare-domain signature rates relative to random sampling. Its performance\\n+claim is also falsified if multiple held-out samples from the disclosed mixture\\n+consistently favor either random selection or the same quality score without\\n+domain balancing. A crawl-position-only cleanliness control was checked on the\\n+provided dev target and was worse (519.9 perplexity) than the submitted balanced\\n+selection (473.4).\\n+\\n+# Transfer\\n+\\n+The extraction-quality features transfer to other English web pools because\\n+they depend on document structure rather than sites or IDs. The balancing scheme\\n+also transfers when target domains change: replace the auditable domain\\n+signatures and weights while retaining the within-domain quality ranking.
