_grow_leaves grew a random caterpillar, so equal-target rooms landed at wildly different binary-tree depths — the depth-driven size maldistribution Diagnostic B (§13.2) localized (same code at 0.05x and 14.7x target). The depth_balanced flag always splits a shallowest leaf instead, growing a near-complete tree so the proportion-aware sizing pass hits each target with cut fractions near their proportional value. Floor probe (diag_depth_balance.py): depth spread collapses 7->1, the giant ratio falls (maxR 12->8 harbor / 16->6 maple), %undersize 54->25 / 42->22, and the achievable floor drops -12% harbor / -11% maple at EQUAL leaf count. Additive with leaf-sharing (bal+sh3 beats §13.3 share3-alone). Default OFF, 214 tests pass; threaded through driver.search/search_staged and exposed via DEPTHBAL in run_staged_search.py. End-to-end 20k A/B running. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> |
