OPA precedent — three-in-a-row water-carrier tap, not single-event hero pay

In 5/14 Nathan 1:1, with Nathan in middle of CVE response (third consecutive: dirty frag → copy-fail → current embargo), Peter declined to set the precedent of OPA/bonus payouts for single-event heroics. Maple — who carried water across all three events via consistent handoffs and status updates — is THE OPA candidate. David (took over secure-boot kernel build during Tate's absence) is growing into the role you'd want him to grow into normally → no OPA. Sultan (great dirty-frag work, up-late nights) → no OPA this round despite the effort. Nathan retained decision authority (Peter: I'm going to support whatever you decide. But, be cautious.) but the framework was set explicitly.
