  Court-time diff 82 min + 2 extra matches + three back-to-backs → Giustino disadvantaged.

NARRATIVE
  Cina let-down: Won Gstaad Final 07-12 (7d ago) → WEAK letdown only, largely absorbed
  (already played 2 matches since, incl. Kitzbuhel SF win).
  Title recency: TITLE: Gstaad 7d ago (clay) — live clay form is real.
  Giustino: Lost Liege qual Final 07-12; no venue momentum signal.

VERDICT — PASS
  The +8.8% Giustino flag is ML-model-only; ELO sides with the market. Qualitative read
  contradicts the dog case on every axis: Giustino is the MORE fatigued player, his final
  run came through Weak opposition, and his record vs Avg/Strong tier is near-uniform
  losses. Cina owns opponent quality (DOM vs Choinski 1760, TB loss to Halys 1710) and
  fresh clay title form. But Cina at 1.36 offers no edge either (blend 60% < implied
  68.8%). No alt markets priced. Model-market disagreement without qualitative
  validation → no bet.
