Box-A2 has no data past ~day 13, so the full-range days x tDCS interaction extrapolates A2's slope and is confounded (spuriously significant, wrong sign). Add the _d0_13 window (equal anchor coverage) and a report warning when the two groups' day coverage is unequal. In the fair 0-13 window the interaction is n.s. with a POSITIVE slope diff and the Day-1 tDCS effect is n.s. -- matching the paper's 'equal on Day 1' direction (underpowered at n=8). Suite 32/32.

% L = TDCS_LME(S, CFG) subsets one scenario table S to the two anchor groups,

% replicating the published formulation (a linear mixed-effects model for the

|
% number of successful reaches with a days x tDCS interaction, a main effect
|
|
% of days, and a main effect of tDCS). `day` is raw and 0-indexed, and OUR
|
|
% day 0 corresponds to the paper's "Day 1", so the tDCS main effect is the
|
|
% group difference on Day 1 -- directly comparable to the paper's "equal on

% effect's evaluation point off Day 1.)
