This supports one shared ordering across Main and genre filters. It does not identify Royal Road's score formula. Our off-list reconstruction uses follower-normalized momentum; the separate Market Pulse lifecycle model does not enter that ranking score.
Daily asynchronous reconstruction is 99.796% if duplicate-rank ties are treated as non-contradictions. Coherent capture agreement is exact.
How to read it: Choose any combination of lists. Grouped bars use the left percentage axis; capped 95% whiskers use the right views-per-day axis. Hover for the evidence diagnosis.
Evidence: 20,763 non-overlapping daily windows across 962 stories, validated against separate 6-hour and 12-hour models.
Important: no genre/rank cell currently has clean causal support. Main’s large association also predicts the preceding day, revealing selection and momentum.
Cross-list study through August 23, 2026. It is shown independently of the category selector above.
