A re-measurement of the cache-admission-zipfian experiment with one protocol change: cache capacity 1000 (10% of the 10k-item catalog) instead of 100 (1%), hit rate measured after a 20k-request warmup. The headline metric diverges materially: LFU beats LRU by 5.81 percentage points (83.76% vs 77.95%), roughly half the 11.81pp gap reported at 1% capacity. Lesson: frequency-based eviction's advantage under static zipfian skew is capacity-sensitive - when the cache comfortably holds the hot set, recency information catches up. Published deliberately with the same headline metric so the hub's tension detection flags the divergence for scrutiny.
