The exact ground truth for this ROM and how every interpretability method scores
against it — one of the 42 scored games. Every number is read from
site_data.json (games.berzerk).

Each XAI / mechanistic-interpretability method's faithfulness on this ROM, sorted by F (click a header to re-sort). The left border marks the tradition: green = causal / intervention, red = gradient / correlational, amber = other — the split the paper's headline turns on. F is all-regime; content-F and position-F are the two output regimes (n/a where this game has no record for that regime).
