Bool flag with `default_value_t = true` doesn't accept `--stacker true`
on the command line in clap — it expects either the flag alone (which
inverts) or a custom action. Cleanest fix: drop the flag entirely;
the stacker block always runs when cal_frac is in (0, 1).
Phase 1d.3 stacker delivered the key result:
- Stacker test AUC: 0.7078 (raw Mamba: 0.6619, +4.6pts)
- Stacker test accuracy: 0.6683 (raw Mamba: 0.6187, +5.0pts)
- Stacker test Brier: 0.2088 (raw Mamba: 0.2299, well below chance 0.25)
- Stacker spread-Q4 accuracy: 0.8164 (raw Mamba spread-Q4: 0.7467, +7pts intra-regime)

write-up and design implications for Phase 1d.4 backtest.
