CP3 — Layer 04 · Expectancy

The EV Scorecard. What the machine is worth.

How MARS uses this

MARS never trusts a single blended figure. Weekly branch probabilities produce a separate EV per branch, weighted by the live profile (45 / 33.75 / 11.25 / 10 by default) into the blend. Reviews read the decomposition first: which branch produced the edge, which one leaked it, and whether the weights still match the evidence.

How it benefits you

You stop repairing the wrong thing. When results dip, the decomposition shows whether the whole system weakened or one branch is dragging - so you fix a branch instead of overhauling a working system, and you spot a single strong branch masking weakness everywhere else.

Branch-level EV decomposition with blend weights. The blended number alone would hide exactly this picture.

What it computes

Expectancy at every layer that matters.

One EV number is never enough — the scorecard decomposes expectancy so edge and variance can be told apart.

  • Normal, Trend Partial, Trend No-Partial, and Overflow EV
  • Blended EV under live weight profiles
  • Stability and drift reads that separate edge from variance

Why it exists

P&L flatters. Expectancy grades.

A profitable stretch with decaying branch EV is a warning, not a victory. The weekly review rule is explicit: review the EV Scorecard for branch EV and blended EV — never rely on total P&L alone. The scorecard is where a lucky month and a healthy machine stop looking identical.

Position in CP3

The layer the whole brand is named after.

Turning expectancy into alpha starts here: scorecard outputs feed the SDE's structural pipelines, the Contradiction Engine's truth tests, and the Throttle_Feed's Daily EV Status. When MARS asks whether edge exists, this layer answers.

Net-first display

04

The scorecard leads with net figures, gross in the footnotes.

Every EV rendered on the scorecard is net of recorded friction by default; gross values exist one layer down for diagnosis. The display order is doctrine: gross EV is what the strategy promises, net EV is what the account receives, and a scorecard that leads with promises trains the wrong instincts.
