"""Claim 5 verifier (GJblFvJcMb, arXiv 2504.19043).

Exact claim (Section 3.2 average case; Section 3.4 adversarial case):
  "Simulation studies show RMSE convergence with sample size across 5-20 factors
   (variance dominating bias) and confidence interval coverage approaching the
   nominal 95% level for n >= 5000 in the adversarial setting."

Addresses the prior toy verdict directly: only 3 attributes were used (not 5-20),
sample sizes were n=[20,80,320] (not up to 10000+), and CI coverage was never
assessed. This verifier runs the paper's actual simulation grid.

Machine-checkable contract:
  AVERAGE CASE (Section 3.2):
    C5a RMSE CONVERGENCE: per-component RMSE of pi_hat* DECREASES with n across
        K in {5,10,20} at n in {500,1500,3500,10000}.
    C5b VARIANCE DOMINATES BIAS: at the largest n, median variance > median
        bias^2 across pi* components (variance is the dominant RMSE driver).
    C5c AVERAGE-CASE COVERAGE: 95% Delta-method CI coverage of pi* components is
        near nominal (within tolerance) at the largest n for each K.
  ADVERSARIAL CASE (Section 3.4):
    C5d ADVERSARIAL COVERAGE: in a two-party zero-sum game (single gender factor,
        per the paper's tractability choice), 95% CI coverage of the equilibrium
        strategy pi_A approaches nominal for n >= 5000 and is BELOW nominal at
        n = 1000 (the paper's reported pattern).

The outcome model, coefficient draws (N(0,1)), interaction scaling to main-
effects R^2 ~ 0.70, noise N(0, 0.1), and the closed-form true pi* (Proposition 1)
all follow the paper's Section 3.1 simulation design.
