2. Statistical Features: Reduced from 50 to 26 (48% reduction)
3. ML Models: All 4 models updated to accept 225-feature input
4. Test Coverage: Added 614 new tests (integration, regime, orchestrator)
5. Performance: 76.2x faster than target (13.12μs vs 1ms per bar)

What Stayed Same

1. Action Spaces: Still 3 actions (buy/sell/hold) - no retraining complexity
2. Reward Functions: Still PnL-based, Sharpe-adjusted - consistent objectives
3. Training Loops: Same hyperparameters, same optimization strategy
4. Wave C Features: All 201 features unchanged (indices 0-200)

Technical Decisions

1. Feature Appending: Wave D features appended (201-224) for backward compatibility
2. Input Layer Expansion: All models require input layer expansion (201→225 neurons)
3. GPU Memory Budget: 440MB total (89% headroom on 4GB RTX 3050 Ti)
4. TFT Static/Temporal Split: Wave D features categorized as static (improved efficiency)

🚨 Known Warnings (Non-Blocking)

Unused Dependencies (4 warnings)

Priority:  P3 (code quality)
Estimate:  10 min
Fix:       Remove unused `extern crate thiserror` from 4 training examples

Test Async Keywords (7 tests)

Priority:  P2 (test quality)
Estimate:  30 min
Fix:       Add `async` keyword to 7 test functions

Clippy Warnings (2,358 warnings)

Priority:  P3 (code quality)
Estimate:  15-20 hours
Fix:       Systematic cleanup across all crates

Impact: None of these warnings block production training or deployment.
