max_pain_distance_pct
Max pain of the nearest monthly expiry at least 7 days out, as level minus spot over spot. The 7-day floor keeps expiry-week pinning noise off the series and hands each monthly over the Friday before it expires.

- Point-in-time
- RESTATED — values change as corporate actions arrive. Each row's vintage_ts records when it was computed.
- Export restriction
- INHERITED FROM core.option_strikes, whose uw_option_chains SourceSpec records the basis: UW API Basic is a personal-use tier and the rows carry OPRA-derived NBBO and greeks (DESIGN.md §9.15, ADR-0014). A statistic computed from restricted data is still restricted - a sum is not a licence.
