More OT stuff - the pain never ends!
Debug trace below (one of many).

2) The big “AI mistake class” behind this (and how it showed up again) 2.1 Substring classification trap: "ineligible" contains "eligible" This is the exact kind of bug that causes practice-killing errors:

  • I inferred a boolean eligible=True from tags containing ineligible, because my logic tested ("eligible" in tag) without excluding ("ineligible" in tag).

  • That produced internally inconsistent fields (eligible=True + summary says ineligible), which then poisons any “experience proxy” stats.

This is not just a one-off. This is a class of failures:

  • label inference by naive string contains

  • silent contradictions between fields

  • downstream stats become wrong

  • LLM then “reasons” from corrupted signals

.

Sigh!
