Game power

More real in-game damage would push this closer to an everyday or impact outcome.

Young-for-level runway

Summary

The calibration layer adds some restraint to the read here. Above Average Skill, standard runway, and balanced org still support a normal prospect-style read. The current median path looks like `Utility / Bench Bat`, with `Moderate Ceiling` upside if the development path keeps moving, though the calibration layer suggests a more hedged version of that outcome.
