The judge gets each file's articles seen and bytes, and whether the window closed on the release. A settled release of one unsplit archive posted to 2+ groups is dropped as a stub archive when its articles are <= 256 KiB with the release >= 1 MB, or it is in 4+ groups, or by a webmail poster (those two under 100 MB); releases touching music, e-book, comics, tabs or fonts groups are exempt. A one-article archive of 100 kB-1 MB under a release-like, unscrambled name without spaces or an e-book format is dropped as a nonsense piece. Both switched by the rule set (dropStubArchives, dropNonsensePieces), mirrored in lib/rules, sampled like every drop (LOG.md (123)-(127)). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
