Quick summary of probability shifts under the weighted system:

  Level I ($80K median):  -57% selection probability
  Level II ($103K median): -14%
  Level III ($135K median): +29%
  Level IV ($158K median): +73%
The counterintuitive finding: product companies (direct employers) have 22% Level I concentration vs 7% for staffing firms. The rule designed to stop "lottery abuse" hits direct employers 3x harder.

Data source: DOL LCA disclosure data. Happy to discuss methodology.
