/**
 * gradeRanking (2026-07-29, specs/top-graded-selector.md) — THE ONE definition of
 * how a board of graded props is ordered. Extracted so the hero, the server
 * selector, and the client board cannot drift apart.
 *
 * WHO USES THIS:
 *   - `services/heroPropService`   — imports `takeablePWin` (its "top READ" rule
 *     is p_win-FIRST, so it uses the primitive, not `rankGrades`).
 *   - `services/topGradedService`  — imports `rankGrades` (its "top GRADES" board
 *     is grade-FIRST). Those two leading picks may legitimately differ; they
 *     agree WITHIN the leading grade tier.
 *   - `web/src/lib/slateAdapter.selectTopGrades` — a MIRROR, because the browser
 *     cannot import `src/` (the Session-25 rule). `tests/unit/gradeBoardSort`
 *     cross-checks the two on identical fixtures — the `playerName.js` precedent.
 *     If you change the order here, change it there IN THE SAME COMMIT.
 *
 * WHY p_win AND NOT ev_pct/edge_pct: ev_pct is NULL on served grades and
 * `Number(null) === 0` made every prop tie at 0 (the hero bug); edge_pct is a
 * price-free (proj−line)/line artifact whose scale is a function of line size.
 * p_win is the only signal whose takeable-MLB-over CLV survived the skew audit.

/**
 * rankByForecast — THE CHALLENGER instrument (2026-08-01).
 *
 * WHY THIS EXISTS, measured on n=200 settled MLB rows:
 *
 *     corr(p_win,               outcome) = +0.26
 *     corr(p_win - fair_prob_v1, outcome) = -0.010
 *     corr(p_win - fair_prob_v2, outcome) = -0.022
 *
 * Subtracting the market price DESTROYS the signal, under BOTH rulers. So the
 * product must rank on the thing that predicts (p_win) and must not rank on
 * market-relative edge at all. `rankGrades` (the incumbent) keeps edge as its
 * 4th key; this one has no edge term anywhere.
 *
 * ORDER: takeable-gated p_win → grade tier → confidence → stable input order.
 *
 * p_win LEADS, grade follows. That inverts the incumbent, and deliberately: the
 * grade letter measured r ~ 0.005 against outcomes and is INVERTED (B 52.4% <
 * C 56.9%), while p_win measures +0.26. Leading with the letter would sort the
 * board by the weaker signal and use the stronger one only to break ties.
 *
 * The takeable gate is mandatory and unchanged: raw p_win crowns -300 chalk,
 * which is not the product.
 *
 * ON CALIBRATION: isotonic is a MONOTONE transform, so ranking on raw p_win and
 * ranking on isotonic-calibrated p_win produce the SAME ORDER. Calibration
 * matters when p_win is displayed or thresholded — it cannot change a ranking.
 * Nothing here needs the calibrated value.

/**
 * WHICH SPORTS MAY RANK ON THE FORECAST — the per-sport doctrine, as a GATE.
 *
 *   A sport ranks on p_win ONLY once its OWN model is built and shown to
 *   predict — calibration AND resolution holding on its own holdout. MLB is the
 *   only sport that has passed. Every other sport is held out as NOT-BUILT,
 *   never as FAILED.
 *
 * WNBA IS NOT "ANTI-PREDICTIVE" AND DOES NOT "ABSTAIN" (corrected 2026-08-01).
 * The -0.12 result that produced those words was NBA-template machinery run on
 * WNBA data. WNBA has never had its own archetypes, variables, conditions or
 * calibration — it is precisely the "sport stubbed in on another sport's
 * template" that CLAUDE.md forbids. So -0.12 is the EXPECTED FAILURE OF AN
 * UNBUILT MODEL, not a verdict on the sport. Reading it as a verdict would
 * quietly retire a sport we never actually attempted.
 *
 * WNBA's own model-build is QUEUED as its own sport, after MLB is finished.
 *
 * The live consequence is identical either way — an unbuilt sport must not rank
 * on a signal that has not been shown to hold for it — which is why this set is
 * UNCHANGED. Only its meaning is corrected. A comment would not have stopped a
 * future flip from going global; this does.
