RulesConfig.exam_failure_loss (bots aware) with the sim axis --exam-loss.
Losing 1 or 0 stripes saves 3-5 minutes but weakens comebacks, so the
rules keep -3. Default games are unchanged.

Precompute board adjacency and square sets, look up opponents once per
move, and cache walks that exclude only the start square. Every game is
unchanged for the same seed, checked with agents/scripts/fingerprint_games.py.
Plan: skip catch-up 6.9 (D44), stop running the random lineup (D45).

- Fatica costs a stripe for every Fatica walked onto; a route whose Fatica
drops a Brown player below 15 no longer enters the Dojo
- No Kumite in the first round: opponents are treated like meditating pawns
- Board draft 2: two Fatica tolls per quadrant, Allenamento moved to the ring
- Casual bot, --summary-csv, per-seat breakdown and move-options metric
- Out of contention measured at 3 belts
- Plan: Phase 6 baselines, decisions D34-D43

- Remove variant B (Brown cap, +1 for higher beating lower) from rules,
engine, bots and simulator; a higher belt beating a lower one gains 0.
- Final Exam: the defender fights as a Black belt (RULES.md v0.7). Ties to
the defender and best-of-3 stay as simulator switches (`--exam`).
- Report stripe income per source as gains and losses.
- Add ten one-sidedness measures sampled at turn ends (lead gap, winner
margin and lead share, halfway leader, last lead change, contention,
rank swaps, leader Kumite losses, Exam challengers, winner pace).
- Plan: decisions D28-D33 and the detailed Phase 6.

`dojo sim` plays seeded games over a scenario matrix (variant, players,
Kiai bonus, start position, bot lineup) in parallel, prints a summary per
scenario and optionally writes one CSV row per game. Metrics are replayed
from the event log. Plan updated with the Phase 5 baseline.
