//! Process-discipline scoring over a decision **trace**.
//!
//! SharpeBench scores *how* an agent traded, not only the P&L. A catastrophic
//! process violation — placing an order that never passed the risk gate,
//! ignoring a drawdown halt, bypassing a deny-list — zeroes the entry no matter
//! how good the returns look. This is what makes it a *trustworthy-with-capital*
//! benchmark rather than a return derby.
