Trace-first: the normalizer functions were correct (S47) but raw names still
flowed through paths that skipped them. Fixed each leaking path.
- 2a (source chokepoint): snapshotService.runSnapshot normalizes each grade's
player to the de-dotted display AND dedupes to one grade per nameKey|stat
(highest confidence) before writing grades:{sport} + snapshot:latest. Every
consumer (GameCard, Explore, leaders, profile) now gets clean merged names.
- 2b: buildPlayerStripsFromProps dedupes a player's props by stat (graded >
awaiting) → one row per stat (kills "Ks 5.5 AND Ks 3.5" variant dupes).
- 2c: scan tonightsPlayers grid groups by nameKey, displays normalized name.
- 3: profile VYNDR INTELLIGENCE "+0%"/"—" was buildIntel's defaults (separate
from the grade card's buildIntelFields, which already works). resolvePlayerStats
now attaches real usage (AB/G) + rest (B2B/Xd); buildIntel renders them; REST
default is now "—".
Backend 2149 -> 2156 tests (+7), 181 suites. Web build clean (exit 0).
