Review polarity

ns compares Jev with 4o-mini only

Tied: Jev 96.3% vs Mini 95.5% (Holm p=1). TF-IDF drops to 84.8%, so the models earn their keep against classical, not against each other. n=356 because v1 used the rest of the split.

Replaces: Binary review sentiment
Gold: stanfordnlp/sst2 - SST-2 validation, the 356 rows left after v1, n=356, seed=11
Labels: negative / positive

Quit line

At >=0.8: 97.9% on 93.3% of reviews, 1.5pt above ungated. There is no headroom left, and ECE 0.030 says the confidence may be quoted.

Auto slice: at Jev confidence ≥ 0.8, 97.9% accurate on 93.3% of traffic, which is +1.5pt against 96.3% ungated. That threshold is the strongest one still covering at least half the traffic, picked by rule from the measured gates.

Calibration: ECE 0.03 (max bin gap 0.217). ECE says whether the confidence can be read as a probability. It does not say whether gating helps: thresholding only needs the model to rank its own answers, so a badly calibrated task can still gate well. High ECE costs you the right to quote the number, not the right to threshold on it.
