The primary citation for our metrics and canonical sub configurations. Welti's 2012 133rd Convention paper introduces MSV (Eq. 2), MOL with per-sub normalization (Eq. 3), and the combined MSVMOL figure of merit (Eq. 5), evaluated across seven named sub configurations (FLC, 4C, FBM, LRM, 4M, FBQ, LRQ) and seven seat configurations. Our Welti Table 2/3 regression test uses this paper's published means as the ground truth.
