"""Cross-run statistics: what, if anything, separated a good run from a bad one.
Accuracy is not comparable across benchmarks -- 0.95 on BFCL and 0.17 on AIME
are both ordinary -- so every comparison here works on `z`, the within-task
z-score of the final accuracy. A feature that "helps" is one that moves a run
up relative to the other runs on *its own* benchmark.
With 48 runs over 7 benchmarks these are descriptive, not inferential: n per
task is 4-8, so the right reading of any correlation is "worth a look", not
"established". Effect sizes are reported alongside n for that reason.
