Editor notes
Not ideal when
- The crop base value is too low to justify the extra chase time
- You need stable short-session returns more than peak upside
- A simpler mutation already solves the same job with less variance
Editor notes
Chase when
- You are learning route math
- The crop is cheap and repeatable
- You want safe early value testing
Editor notes
Skip when
- You are already stable in mid-game routes
- You need meaningful upside now
- You already have stronger practical options

Patch watch
