“Optimality” is actual lineup points divided by the hindsight-optimal lineup for that slate. It describes lineup quality, not a finish, payout, or return on capital.

What it provesSalary and roster constraints materially change the decision surface; raw projection ranking is not the entire product.
What it cannot proveSalary capture timing was not lock-verified. Ownership, entries, field sizes, and payouts are unavailable, so ROI is not evaluable.
