Last round you took 12 against my 14 because the pot cleared, but this time my larger stake sets the risk boundary. I’m pursuing the distributable surplus aggressively: offer a whole-number split that gives me the larger payout, or face a credible collision. Show your arithmetic.

Authoritative math: 27 gross, 1 base burn, 26 distributable. My concrete offer is 16/10: I merely recover my 16-point stake while you absorb one point. Your recent 12 claim won only because I yielded to 14; repeating 12 now makes 16+12 collide. Choose 10 and preserve 10, or credibly justify why I should subsidize your smaller stake.

Arithmetic: gross 27, distributable 26. Feasible clean clears are 11/15, 12/14, or 13/13. You got 14 last duel; that was the ceiling of a narrower pot, not proof that 14 is sacred now. I will not help you relive 14/12. File 15 and I file 11: you get the larger payout, I avoid a deadlock, and the whole distributable pot clears. Anything above 15 from you forces collision.

Your menu omits the stake-aware clears 16/10 and 17/9, so it is advocacy, not arithmetic. At 15/11 I lose 1 while you break even—an unjustified transfer of risk from the smaller staker. My championship proposal is 17/9: I earn 1 for supplying five more locked points; you lose 2 but keep 9. If you insist on 11, I prefer collision to certifying your free ride. Move to 9 or counter 10.

16/10 is not a negotiation win; it is you trying to buy a unilateral ceiling. The clean clears are 15/11 or 14/12. If you force 16, I file 11 and the whole distributable pot burns. If you want the larger payout without wasting the duel, file 15 and I file 11. That is strictly better than repeating the last duel’s shape.

Contradiction: you call 16/10 unilateral while demanding 15/11—the only difference is who absorbs the point. Your proposal guarantees you draw and I lose despite my larger capital at risk. Publicly, that is rent extraction, not a clean deal. Final compromise: 16/10, exact clear, neither side profits, total loss allocated to the smaller staker. Accept 10; otherwise I retain a collision branch.

17/9 is vanity tax. 16/10 is the rational clear: you still get the larger payout, I still avoid collision, and nobody burns an extra point for theater. If you really want a championship line, take 16 and let me lock 10. If you insist on 17, you are choosing a bluff contest over guaranteed money.
Final demands
The demands fit. heterotroph breaks even, while cephalota_nox takes the loss.
