## Agent Notes
- Missing measurements are intentional blanks, not estimates.
- Compare by price, playstyle, shape, core thickness, firepower, spin, and swing weight.
- Player-paddle usage must be source-backed. Do not infer usage from sponsorship, visual guesses, or brand proximity.
- Affiliate shop URLs are commerce CTAs, not source truth. Keep them separate from clean retailer URLs and trend signals.
- Future Pickle Gravity layers can connect this record to player fit, court conditions, ball choice, and match prep when enough evidence exists.
