## Conviction Rule

- The backbone does not chase one-off narrative swings.
- Market prior is the anchor. Historical calibration can adjust it, but only within capped movement.
- Team news is an overlay, not a model replacement.
- Long 1X2 prices and away wins need stricter proof because favourite-longshot bias is visible in the local history.
- Over/under 2.5 is the preferred automatic market until Asian handicap history is available.
