Side A delivers a genuine algorithmic fix (min-max score normalization instead of list-position gradient) with new unit tests validating the behavior change, improving actual UI correctness and giving lasting design value. Side B merely deletes a stale duplicate file left over from an earlier refactor, which is necessary cleanup/bugfix for module resolution but contributes no new functionality beyond fixing an artifact of a prior split.

council reasoning
A replaces ordinal/list-position coloring with min–max score normalization inside each rank group (plus targeted tests for range, ties, and similarity), a lasting UX/design fix. B only deletes the leftover monolithic forum.rs and finishes relocating code into the forum/ tree, which is useful cleanup but not new behavior or design.
Side A changes the ranking color algorithm from list-position-based gradients to score-based min–max normalization within each group, introducing a dedicated `score_gradient_t` helper, updating `rank_row_style` call sites, and adding focused tests for range mapping, tied scores, and stability. Side B is primarily a structural refactor that deletes the duplicate `forum.rs` in favor of `forum/mod.rs` and split modules; while valuable for maintainability and removing module ambiguity, it largely preserves existing behavior rather than improving project functionality.

[0366806e] Color rank rows by vote mass within each group, not list position. Min–max normalization keeps similar scores visually close while still using the full gradient as groups grow and absolute mass dilutes. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
