-**Key findings:**
-- LZRC **wins on binary** (mozilla +10%, sum +19%, grammar +21%, samba +0.6%)
-- BWT **wins on text** (alice29, dickens — BWT exploits long-range context better)
-- Multi-trial at L20 tries both and keeps the smallest result per block
-- mozilla 3.22× is the **best LZ result ever** for MCX, approaching xz's 3.85×
+**Platform:** Linux x64, GCC 11, single-threaded
