Both were opt-in adaptive-spot refinements that did not help. Soft per-spot
weighting was index-rate neutral across the battery (re-ranking only bites when
spots exceed the max-spot cap, which weak serial data does not reach). The
local-SNR gate was neutral on index rate and degraded merged CC1/2 on flooded
XFEL data. Drops the flags, ApplyWeights/FilterByLocalSNR, the per-spot weight
field, and the by-weight FilterSpotsByCount branch (now strongest-first only).
--adaptive-spots itself is unchanged.
