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 want stable practical value
- The route is already balanced
- You are improving consistency, not chasing clips
Editor notes
Skip when
- You only care about huge ceiling
- The route already needs more raw power
