From b161ade5e0bf65c9491adae3f90e7f0d7722e7ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: igerber Date: Sat, 16 May 2026 12:52:04 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/9] =?UTF-8?q?SpilloverDiD:=20event=5Fstudy=3DTrue=20per-?= =?UTF-8?q?event-time=20=C3=97=20ring=20decomposition=20(Wave=20C)?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Replaces the Wave B NotImplementedError gate at spillover.py:1430-1442 with the full per-event-time × ring decomposition from Butts (2021) Section 5 / Table 2. Emits per-event-time direct effects tau_k and per-(ring, event-time) spillover effects delta_jk as att_dynamic: pd.DataFrame (indexed by k) and MultiIndex spillover_effects (levels (ring_label, event_time)). A TwoStageDiD- compatible event_study_effects: Dict[int, Dict] alias (mirroring two_stage.py:1355-1389 schema with conf_int = (low, high) tuple) is also emitted for consumption by plot_event_study and diagnostic_report. Methodology: the implementation operationalizes Butts' single K_it symbol as TWO event-time clocks — K_direct = t - effective_first_treat(i) for ever- treated rows, and K_spill = t - earliest-in-range-cohort-onset(i) for spillover rows (running min across activated cohorts; NaN for pre-trigger and far-away rows). K_spill >= 0 structurally; negative-k spillover cells emit rectangularly with coef = NaN, n_obs = 0. Reference period: ref_period = -1 - anticipation (TwoStageDiD parity at two_stage.py:486). When horizon_max is set, ref_period must fall inside [-horizon_max, +horizon_max] or fit raises ValueError — silent floor-shift to -horizon_max would change identification (rejected per feedback_no_silent_failures). Reference row uses coef = 0.0, se = 0.0, n_obs = 0, conf_int = (0.0, 0.0). horizon_max semantics (divergence from TwoStageDiD): bins event-times outside [-H, +H] into endpoint pools, no observations dropped. TwoStageDiD filters those rows. Divergence intentional + cross-documented. horizon_max=None auto- detects the bin set from observed K values. Scalar att aggregation: sample-share-weighted average of post-treatment tau_k (att = sum_{k>=0} w_k * tau_k with w_k = n_treated_at_k / total). SE from linear-combination inference Var(att) = w' V_subset w on the post-treatment block of the stage-2 vcov — no separate fit. Reduce-to-aggregate equivalence: under constant-tau DGP with horizon_max=None, the lincom-weighted scalar att reproduces Wave B's aggregate tau_total bit- identically. Note: horizon_max=0 does NOT reduce to Wave B (binning collapses pre-treatment K values into k=0, making D^0 = D_i ever-treated indicator rather than D_it). Backward compatibility: event_study=False leaves all Wave C fields (att_dynamic, event_study_effects, horizon_max, reference_period) as None and reproduces Wave B SEs bit-identically. Variance caveat: per-event-time SEs use solve_ols's standard variance (HC1 / Conley / cluster) WITHOUT the Gardner GMM first-stage uncertainty correction; planned Wave D follow-up closes this. Tests: 30 new event-study test methods covering API, two-clock K helper, horizon binning, design builder, reference period, reduce-to-aggregate, identification MC (50 seeds, per-event-time tau_k recovery within 0.025), placebo pre-trends (Type I rate <= 0.30 over 50 seeds at alpha=0.10), singularity (rectangular schema), Conley integration (vcov shape + np.diag >= 0), summary/to_dict/pickle round-trip, event_study_effects schema parity with TwoStageDiD, lincom-att hand-computed, validation (horizon_max < 0, ref_period < -horizon_max), and fit idempotence. DGP factory generate_butts_staggered_dgp extended with tau_per_event_time and delta_per_ring_per_event_time callable kwargs (backward-compatible — both default to None, producing the Wave B scalar DGP bit-identically; verified by tests/test_dgp_utils.py with pinned SHA-256 baselines).

Builds on the PR #451 paper review at `docs/methodology/papers/goodman-bacon-2021-review.md`. **Audit outcomes:** (1) Rewrote `_recompute_exact_weights` in `bacon.py` to actually implement Theorem 1 (Eqs. 7-9 + 10e-g) — the prior "exact" implementation was missing the `(1-n_kU)` factor in the subsample variance, did not square the sample share, and added an extraneous `unit_share` factor not present in the paper; the post-hoc sum-to-1 normalization masked the relative-weight error but produced ~0.3% decomposition error vs TWFE on a 3-cohort + never-treated DGP. The rewrite computes the exact numerators of Eqs. 10e/f/g and lets the post-hoc normalization handle the `V̂^D` denominator (Theorem 1's identity guarantees `V̂^D = Σ numerators`). The TWFE-vs-weighted-sum identity now holds at `atol=1e-10` on both noisy and hand-calculable DGPs. (2) Added always-treated warn+remap per paper footnote 11: units whose `first_treat` is at or before the first observable period (`first_treat <= min(time)`, excluding the never-treated sentinels `0` and `np.inf`) are automatically remapped to the `U` (untreated) bucket via an internal column (`__bacon_first_treat_internal__`) with a `UserWarning`. Detection uses ordered-time logic on the **time axis**, so panels whose `time` column has negative or zero-crossing labels (event-time encodings) are handled correctly; the `0` sentinel restriction applies only to `first_treat`, not to `time`, and a real treatment cohort with `first_treat == 0` would still be folded into U today (re-label such cohorts to a non-sentinel value before fitting). The user's original `first_treat` column is preserved unchanged. The count is surfaced as a new `BaconDecompositionResults.n_always_treated_remapped` dataclass field, rendered in `summary()` output when nonzero. **`n_never_treated` reports TRUE never-treated only**, computed from the original user column before remap — remapped always-treated units appear separately as `n_always_treated_remapped`, no double-counting. (3) New methodology test file `tests/test_methodology_bacon.py` (~24 tests across 6 classes: `TestBaconHandCalculation` hand-checks Eqs. 7-9 + 10b-d on a minimal balanced panel at `atol=1e-10`; `TestBaconParityR` skips with a pointer when goldens missing; `TestBaconAlwaysTreatedRemap` regression-tests warn+remap mechanics including user-data-preservation; `TestBaconEdgeCases` exercises no-untreated, single-cohort, unbalanced panel, constant-ATT recovery; `TestBaconWeightModes` locks the new exact-is-default contract; `TestBaconSurveyDesignNarrowing` confirms survey_design composes with exact mode and warn+remap). (4) R `bacondecomp::bacon()` parity generator committed at `benchmarks/R/generate_bacon_golden.R` covering three DGP fixtures (3-groups-with-U, 2-groups-no-U, always-treated-remapped); JSON goldens deferred until `bacondecomp` R package is installed (parity tests skip cleanly with an explicit pointer). (5) `docs/methodology/REGISTRY.md` `## BaconDecomposition` block replaced with the paper-review-sourced entry plus three new sub-notes: weight modes (exact vs approximate), always-treated remap, R parity status. **Explicit removal:** the prior REGISTRY block's "Weights may be negative for later-vs-earlier comparisons" claim was incorrect per Theorem 1 (decomposition weights are strictly positive and sum to 1; negative weights are an estimand-level phenomenon, not estimator-level) and is dropped from the new entry. Closes the BaconDecomposition follow-up tracked at `TODO.md` (the prior row added in PR #451 is replaced by a narrower R-parity-goldens deferral row). +- **`SpilloverDiD(event_study=True)` — per-event-time × ring decomposition (Butts 2021 Section 5 / Table 2).** Replaces the Wave B `NotImplementedError` gate with the full per-event-time × ring decomposition. Emits per-event-time direct effects `tau_k` and per-(ring, event-time) spillover effects `delta_jk` as `att_dynamic: pd.DataFrame` (indexed by event-time `k`) and a MultiIndex `spillover_effects: pd.DataFrame` (levels `(ring_label, event_time)`). A TwoStageDiD-compatible `event_study_effects: Dict[int, Dict[str, Any]]` alias (matching `two_stage.py:1355-1389` schema with `conf_int = (low, high)` tuple) is also emitted for consumption by `plot_event_study` and `diagnostic_report.event_study_diagnostics`. **Methodology spec:** the implementation operationalizes Butts Section 5's single `K_it` symbol as TWO event-time clocks — `K_direct = t - effective_first_treat(i)` for ever-treated unit rows, and `K_spill = t - earliest-in-range-cohort-onset(i)` for spillover rows (running min across activated cohorts; NaN for pre-trigger and far-away rows). `K_spill >= 0` structurally; negative-k spillover cells emit rectangularly with `coef = NaN, n_obs = 0`. **Reference period:** `ref_period = -1 - anticipation` (mirrors `TwoStageDiD` at `two_stage.py:486`); when `horizon_max` is set, `ref_period` must fall inside `[-horizon_max, +horizon_max]` or fit raises `ValueError` — silent floor-shift to `-horizon_max` would change identification (rejected per `feedback_no_silent_failures`). The reference row in `att_dynamic` / `event_study_effects` uses `coef = 0.0, se = 0.0, n_obs = 0, conf_int = (0.0, 0.0)` for TwoStageDiD parity. **`horizon_max` semantics (divergence from TwoStageDiD):** SpilloverDiD bins event-times outside `[-horizon_max, +horizon_max]` into endpoint pools (no observations dropped); TwoStageDiD filters those rows. The divergence is intentional and cross-documented. With `horizon_max=None`, the helper auto-detects the bin set from observed K values. **Scalar `att` aggregation:** when `event_study=True`, the top-level `att` is the **sample-share-weighted average** of post-treatment `tau_k` (`att = sum_{k >= 0} w_k * tau_k` with `w_k = n_treated_at_k / total`). SE comes from linear-combination inference `Var(att) = w' V_subset w` on the post-treatment block of the stage-2 vcov — no separate fit. **Reduce-to-aggregate equivalence:** under a constant-tau DGP with `horizon_max=None`, the lincom-weighted scalar `att` reproduces Wave B's aggregate `tau_total` bit-identically in the deterministic limit (verified by `TestSpilloverDiDEventStudyReduceToAggregate`). Note: `horizon_max=0` does NOT reduce to Wave B (binning collapses pre-treatment K values into `k=0`, making `D^0 = D_i` ever-treated indicator rather than `D_it`). **Backward compatibility:** `event_study=False` leaves all Wave C fields (`att_dynamic`, `event_study_effects`, `horizon_max`, `reference_period`) as `None` and reproduces Wave B SEs bit-identically (verified by `TestSpilloverDiDEventStudyBackwardCompat`). **Variance:** same caveat as Wave B — per-event-time SEs use `solve_ols`'s standard variance (HC1 / Conley / cluster paths) WITHOUT the Gardner GMM first-stage uncertainty correction; planned Wave D follow-up closes this. **Tests:** `tests/test_spillover.py` adds 30 new test methods across event-study API, two-clock K helper, horizon binning, design builder, reference period, reduce-to-aggregate, identification MC (50 seeds, per-event-time tau_k recovery within 0.025), placebo pre-trends (Type I rate ≤ 0.30 over 50 seeds at alpha=0.10), singularity (rectangular schema), Conley integration (vcov shape + non-negative diagonal), summary/to_dict/pickle round-trip, event_study_effects schema parity with TwoStageDiD, lincom-att hand-computed, validation (`horizon_max < 0`, `ref_period < -horizon_max`), and fit idempotence. DGP factory `generate_butts_staggered_dgp` extended with `tau_per_event_time` and `delta_per_ring_per_event_time` callable kwargs (backward-compatible — both default to `None`, producing the Wave B scalar DGP bit-identically; verified by `tests/test_dgp_utils.py` with pinned SHA-256 baselines). - **`SpilloverDiD` — ring-indicator spillover-aware DiD (Butts 2021).** New standalone estimator at `diff_diff/spillover.py` implementing two-stage Gardner methodology with ring-indicator covariates that identify direct effect on treated (`tau_total`) alongside per-ring spillover effects on near-control units (`delta_j`). Documented synthesis of ingredients (no single published software covers the exact recipe — `did2s` implements Gardner two-stage without rings; the Butts ring estimator has no R/Stata package): Butts (2021) Section 5 / Table 2 identification, Gardner (2022) two-stage residualize-then-fit, and the Conley spatial-HAC vcov shipped in 3.3.3. Handles both panel non-staggered (Equations 5/6/8) and Section 5 staggered timing in one estimator — non-staggered is the special case where all treated units share an onset time. **API:** `SpilloverDiD(rings=[0, 50, 100, 200], conley_coords=("lat","lon"), ...).fit(data, outcome="y", unit="unit", time="t", treatment="D")` (binary D auto-converted to `first_treat`) or `.fit(..., first_treat="first_treat")` (Gardner convention). Result: `SpilloverDiDResults(DiDResults)` with `.att` = `tau_total`, `.spillover_effects` (per-ring `pd.DataFrame` with `coef`/`se`/`t_stat`/`p_value`/`ci_low`/`ci_high`), `.ring_breakpoints`, `.d_bar`, `.n_units_ever_in_ring`, `.n_far_away_obs`, `.is_staggered`. `.coefficients` exposes all `(1+K)` stage-2 entries (`"treatment"` + `"_spillover_"`) plus an `"ATT"` alias keyed to vcov columns. **Methodology spec (committed):** stage-2 regressor is the time-varying `(1 - D_it) * Ring_{it,j}` form (paper page 12's `S_it = S_i * 1{t >= t_treat}` notation; Section 5 Table 2's `S^k_{it}` / `Ring^k_{it,j}`). Reading the literal unit-static `(1 - D_it) * S_i` from Equation 5 is algebraically rank-deficient under TWFE (`(1-D_it) * S_i = S_i - D_it`, with `S_i` absorbed by `mu_i`, leaving `-D_it`); only the time-varying form supports the paper's identification (Proposition 2.3). Stage-1 subsample uses Butts' STRICTER `Omega_0 = {D_it = 0 AND S_it = 0}` (untreated AND unexposed), not TwoStageDiD's `{D_it = 0}` alone — this prevents spillover-contaminated near-controls in pre/post periods from biasing the time FE. **Gardner identity (non-staggered):** a 20-seed deterministic regression test pins `SpilloverDiD.att` against a direct single-stage TWFE ring regression on the full sample (`y ~ mu_i + lambda_t + tau * D_it + sum_j delta_j * (1 - D_it) * Ring_{it,j}`) at `atol=1e-10` — empirically bit-identical, so the reported non-staggered `tau_total` IS the Butts Eqs. 4-6 estimator. **Identification-check policy (period strict, unit warn-and-drop, plus connectivity):** every period must have at least one Omega_0 row (hard `ValueError` — dropping a period removes all units' cross-time identification). Units lacking Omega_0 rows (e.g. baseline-treated units with `D_it = 1` at every observed `t`) are warned-and-dropped: their unit FE is NaN, residualization writes NaN on their rows, and the downstream finite-mask path excludes them from stage 2 — mirrors `TwoStageDiD`'s always-treated convention. Additionally, the supported-units bipartite graph (units linked by shared Omega_0 periods) must form a single connected component; `K > 1` components raise `ValueError` because the FE solver would return only component-specific constants and residualization would silently mix them across components (defense-in-depth — under absorbing treatment the disconnected case may be unreachable through the upstream validators, but the check future-proofs Wave B follow-ups). **Public API restrictions (Wave B MVP):** `covariates=` raises `NotImplementedError` because Gardner-style two-stage requires covariate effects estimated on the untreated-and-unexposed subsample at stage 1 (appending raw covariates only at stage 2 silently biases `tau_total` / `delta_j` on panels with time-varying covariates); non-absorbing / reversible treatment patterns (e.g. `[0, 1, 0]`) raise `ValueError` rather than being silently coerced into "treated from first 1 onward"; non-constant `first_treat` values across rows of the same unit raise `ValueError`; `conley_coords` is required on every fit path (not just `vcov_type="conley"`) because ring construction always uses it. **Far-away control identification:** uses CURRENT-period untreated status (`D_it = 0`) rather than never-treated-only, so all-eventually-treated staggered designs (no never-treated units) can identify the counterfactual via not-yet-treated far-away rows. **Variance (Wave B MVP):** stage-2 OLS variance via `solve_ols` (HC1 / Conley / cluster paths all flow through). The Gardner GMM first-stage uncertainty correction is NOT applied at stage 2 in this PR (documented limitation; planned follow-up extends `two_stage.py::_compute_gmm_variance` to accept a Conley kernel matrix in place of HC1's identity at the influence-function outer-product step). **Deferred features (planned follow-ups):** `event_study=True` per-event-time × ring coefficients (Butts Table 2), `survey_design=` integration, `ring_method="count"` (count-of-treated-in-ring), data-driven `d_bar` selection (Butts 2021b / Butts 2023 JUE Insight), Gardner GMM first-stage correction at stage 2, sparse staggered ring-distance path. **Tests:** `tests/test_spillover.py` (157 tests across ring-construction primitives, validators, fit integration, raw-data invariant, identification MC — non-staggered DGP at 50 seeds + 200-seed `@pytest.mark.slow` variant recovers both `tau_total` and `delta_1`; staggered DGP at 30 seeds anchors both `tau_total` and `delta_1` — Conley plumbing (verifies `solve_ols` is called with `vcov_type="conley"` + Conley kwargs, no silent HC1 fallback), Gardner identity bit-identity, coefficients-vs-vcov alignment, warn-and-drop, rank_deficient_action validation, Omega_0 bipartite-graph connectivity, anticipation behavior on both fit paths). DGP factories `tests/_dgp_utils.py::generate_butts_nonstaggered_dgp` / `generate_butts_staggered_dgp` satisfy Butts Assumptions 1/3/5/7 by construction. - **`ChaisemartinDHaultfoeuille.predict_het` × `placebo`: R-parity on both global and per-path surfaces.** R-verified — `did_multiplegt_dyn(predict_het, placebo)` emits heterogeneity OLS results on backward (placebo) horizons via R's `DIDmultiplegtDYN:::did_multiplegt_main` placebo block (`effect = matrix(-i, ...)` rbind site); the same block runs per-by_level under `did_multiplegt_dyn(by_path, predict_het, placebo)`, so both global `res$results$predict_het` and per-by_level `res$by_level_i$results$predict_het` slots emit backward rows. R's predict_het syntax with `placebo > 0` requires the `c(-1)` sentinel in the horizon vector to trigger "compute heterogeneity for ALL forward (1..effects) AND ALL placebo (1..placebo) positions" — passing positive-only horizons errors with "specified numbers in predict_het that exceed the number of placebos". Python mirrors via `_compute_heterogeneity_test(..., placebo=L_max)` (set automatically from `self.placebo` at both global and per-path call sites in `fit()`) — the function iterates forward (1..L_max) and backward (-1..-L_max) horizons in a single loop with an explicit `out_idx < 0` eligibility guard for backward horizons whose `F_g` is too small (would otherwise silently misread `N_mat` via numpy negative indexing). `results.heterogeneity_effects` uses negative-int keys for backward horizons; `path_heterogeneity_effects` does the same per path. Placebo rows in `to_dataframe(level="by_path")` have non-NaN `het_*` columns when `placebo=True` and `heterogeneity=` are both set. **Survey gate (warn + skip):** `survey_design + placebo + heterogeneity` emits a `UserWarning` at fit-time and falls back to forward-horizon-only heterogeneity on both surfaces — the Binder TSL cell-period allocator's REGISTRY justification is tied to **post-period** attribution; backward-horizon attribution puts ψ_g mass on a pre-period cell, a separate library-extension claim that needs its own derivation. Forward-horizon `predict_het + survey_design` continues to work unchanged on both global and per-path surfaces. The function-level `_compute_heterogeneity_test` keeps a per-iteration `NotImplementedError` backstop for direct callers that bypass fit(). Pre-period allocator derivation deferred to a follow-up methodology PR (tracked in TODO.md).

With `horizon_max=None`, auto-detects bin set from observed K. **Validation:** `horizon_max < 0` raises `ValueError`; `ref_period < -horizon_max` (i.e., `anticipation > horizon_max - 1`) raises `ValueError` — silently floor-shifting the reference would change identification. **Reduce-to-aggregate:** under constant-tau DGP with `horizon_max=None`, the share-weighted scalar `att` reproduces Wave B's aggregate bit-identically. **Note:** `horizon_max=0` does NOT reduce to Wave B (binning collapses pre-treatment K values to `k=0`, making `D^0 = D_i` ever-treated indicator rather than `D_it`). Per-event-time SEs share the same Wave B Gardner-GMM caveat (biased downward by a few percent; Wave D follow-up). - Stage-2 variance is `solve_ols` HC1 / Conley / cluster — Gardner GMM first-stage uncertainty correction NOT applied (planned follow-up; SE is biased downward / too small, CIs too narrow, p-values too small — treat reported significance conservatively until the GMM correction lands) - Only nearest-treated rings supported; `ring_method="count"` (count of treated neighbors in ring) not yet exposed diff --git a/diff_diff/results.py b/diff_diff/results.py index 02b7e5a8..d50657b5 100644 --- a/diff_diff/results.py +++ b/diff_diff/results.py @@ -408,37 +408,82 @@ class SpilloverDiDResults(DiDResults): event_study: Optional[bool] = field(default=None) stage1_n_obs: Optional[int] = field(default=None) anticipation: Optional[int] = field(default=None) + # Wave C event-study fields (None when event_study=False): + att_dynamic: Optional[pd.DataFrame] = field(default=None) + # Per-event-time direct effects DataFrame indexed by integer k. + # Columns: ["coef", "se", "t_stat", "p_value", "ci_low", "ci_high", "n_obs"]. + # Includes the reference period row with coef=0.0, se=0.0, n_obs=0. + event_study_effects: Optional[Dict[int, Dict[str, Any]]] = field(default=None) + # TwoStageDiD-compatible alias for ``att_dynamic`` consumable by + # ``plot_event_study`` and ``diagnostic_report.event_study_diagnostics``. + # Schema mirrors ``two_stage.py:1355-1389``: + # {k: {"effect", "se", "n_obs", "t_stat", "p_value", "conf_int": (low, high)}} + # Reference row uses ``conf_int = (0.0, 0.0)`` (TwoStageDiD parity). + horizon_max: Optional[int] = field(default=None) + reference_period: Optional[int] = field(default=None) def summary(self, alpha: Optional[float] = None) -> str: - """Extended summary with ATT row plus per-ring rows.""" + """Extended summary with ATT row, per-event-time direct block, and + per-(ring, event-time) spillover block.""" base = super().summary(alpha=alpha) - if self.spillover_effects is None or self.spillover_effects.empty: + insert_blocks: List[str] = [] + + # Wave C event-study: per-event-time direct effects block. + if self.att_dynamic is not None and not self.att_dynamic.empty: + insert_blocks.append("") + insert_blocks.append("Dynamic Direct Effects by Event Time".center(70)) + insert_blocks.append("-" * 70) + insert_blocks.append( + f"{'k':<15} {'Estimate':>12} {'Std.

Direct effects `tau_k` and per-(ring, event-time) spillover effects `delta_jk` are emitted in `att_dynamic` and a MultiIndex `spillover_effects`. A TwoStageDiD-compatible `event_study_effects: Dict[int, Dict]` alias (mirroring `two_stage.py:1355-1389` schema with `conf_int = (low, high)` tuple) is also emitted for consumption by `plot_event_study` and `diagnostic_report.event_study_diagnostics`. + +**Note (two-clock K_it):** Butts Section 5 uses one symbol `K_it`, but operationally there are TWO event-time clocks. The **direct-effect clock** is `K_direct_{it} = t - effective_first_treat(i)` for ever-treated unit rows (NaN for never-treated). The **spillover-exposure clock** is `K_spill_{it} = t - min{ effective_first_treat(j) : d(i, j) ≤ d_bar AND effective_first_treat(j) ≤ t }` — time since `i` first became exposed to ANY treated neighbor (running min across activated cohorts). `K_spill` is structurally non-negative (pre-trigger rows are NaN and contribute to stage 1 only); spillover placebos at `k < 0` are therefore NOT meaningful and rectangular emission of those cells uses NaN coef + `n_obs = 0`. The trigger cohort for unit `i` is the earliest activated cohort whose treated members fall within `d_bar` of `i` — NOT necessarily the geographically nearest cohort. + +**Note (endpoint binning, divergence from TwoStageDiD):** `horizon_max` bins event-times outside `[-H, +H]` into endpoint pools (`k ≤ -H` aggregated into one pre-bin dummy; `k ≥ +H` into one post-bin dummy). No observations are dropped. This **diverges intentionally** from `TwoStageDiD`'s `horizon_max` semantic, which **filters** rows with `|K_it| > H` out of the stage-2 sample. SpilloverDiD's bin-into-endpoint behavior honors the no-silent-data-drop policy; the divergence is documented on both estimators' docstrings to prevent future unification. With `horizon_max=None`, the helper auto-detects the event-time bin set from the observed K values (no binning). + +**Note (reference period `-1 - anticipation`):** The reference period (the event-time dummy dropped to anchor the level interpretation) is `ref_period = -1 - anticipation`. With `anticipation=0`, `ref_period = -1` (standard event-study convention; coefficients are relative to one period before treatment). With `anticipation > 0`, the reference period shifts to `-1 - anticipation` so the "pre-treatment" anchor sits BEFORE the anticipation window. Mirrors `TwoStageDiD`'s convention at `two_stage.py:486`. The reference row appears in `att_dynamic` and `event_study_effects` with `coef = 0.0`, `se = 0.0`, `n_obs = 0`, `conf_int = (0.0, 0.0)` (TwoStageDiD parity, `two_stage.py:1355-1362`). When `horizon_max` is set and `ref_period < -horizon_max` (i.e., `anticipation > horizon_max - 1`), the fit raises `ValueError` — silently floor-shifting the reference to `-horizon_max` would change identification (rejected per `feedback_no_silent_failures`). + +**Note (scalar `att` aggregation):** The top-level `att` field, when `event_study=True`, is the **sample-share-weighted average** of post-treatment direct effects: +``` +att = sum_{k >= 0} (n_treated_at_k / sum_{k >= 0} n_treated_at_k) * tau_k +``` +The standard error comes from **linear-combination inference** on the post-treatment block of the stage-2 vcov: `Var(att) = w' V_subset w` where `w` is the share-weight row vector and `V_subset` is the sub-vcov of post-treatment `tau_k` rows. This properly accounts for cross-event-time covariance and does NOT require a separate fit. CallawaySantAnna's `aggregate_method="simple"` and TwoStageDiD's analogous aggregate-from-event-study path use the same sample-share weighting convention. + +**Note (rectangular schema):** `att_dynamic` and the MultiIndex `spillover_effects` are emitted **rectangularly** across the full event-time × ring grid implied by `horizon_max`. Empty cells (no rows contribute to the corresponding stage-2 design column — pre-filtered to keep `solve_ols` rank warnings quiet) emit `coef = NaN`, `se = NaN`, `n_obs = 0`. This includes negative-k spillover cells (structurally empty: `K_spill ≥ 0`) and outer-ring cells when the panel has no units in that ring band. Downstream consumers can iterate the rectangular grid without `KeyError` on missing cells. + +**Reduce-to-aggregate equivalence:** Under a **constant-tau DGP** with `horizon_max=None`, the sample-share-weighted scalar `att` reproduces Wave B's aggregate `tau_total` (bit-identical at machine precision in the deterministic limit; small MC noise on realized panels). This is the canonical equivalence path. Note: `horizon_max=0` does NOT reduce to Wave B's aggregate spec — binning collapses pre-treatment K values into `k=0`, so `D^0_{it} = D_i` (ever-treated indicator) rather than `D_it` (treated-and-post indicator). The `H=0` design is well-defined but semantically distinct from Wave B's static design. + +**Variance:** Same caveat as Wave B — per-event-time SEs use the standard `solve_ols` estimator (HC1 / Conley / cluster paths) WITHOUT the Gardner GMM first-stage uncertainty correction. Per-`tau_k` and per-`delta_jk` SEs are biased downward by the same few percent.

Previously _build_event_study_design counted rows on the pre-mask design; those stale counts then populated att_dynamic / event_study_effects AND weighted the scalar att. On warn-and-drop fits, reported metadata disagreed with the actual stage-2 sample AND the point estimate could change. Fix: in fit(), recompute event_study_meta["n_obs_per_col"] from X_2_fit after applying finite_mask. P1: fail-closed scalar att when post-direct coef is NaN. Previously np.nansum on a fixed weight vector silently zeroed dropped (rank-deficient) post-treatment direct coefficients, changing the ATT point estimate. Fix: detect any non-finite post-direct coef and return att=NaN with a UserWarning. Library convention is no-silent-failures (feedback_no_silent_failures); inspect att_dynamic for the per-event-time coefficients and re-aggregate manually if needed. P3: emit (ring, ref_period) spillover_effects rows. The pre-filter dropped ref_period from k_grid entirely, so the rectangular emission missed the (ring, ref_period) cells per ring. Consumers iterating [-H,...,+H] would KeyError on the reference slice. Fix: emit (ring, ref_period) with coef=0.0, se=0.0, n_obs=0 to mirror the direct-effect reference row. Tests added: - TestSpilloverDiDEventStudyFiniteMaskPath: warn-and-drop panel (baseline- treated units with no Omega_0 rows) with event_study=True. Verifies att_dynamic["n_obs"], event_study_effects[k]["n_obs"], AND scalar att share weights all reflect the post-mask sample. Hand-computed lincom reproduces res.att at machine precision. - TestSpilloverDiDEventStudyRankDeficientFailClosed: monkey-patches solve_ols to NaN out one post-direct coef. Asserts att=NaN and the documented warning fires. - TestSpilloverDiDEventStudyReferencePeriodSpilloverRows: asserts every (ring, ref_period) cell exists in spillover_effects with the 0-anchored schema. Strengthened test_per_event_time_tau_recovers_exact_y_with_zero_noise to verify the closed-form y = mu_i + lambda_t + tau_fn(k) holds at atol=1e-12 per row, instead of merely checking that k=0 rows exist. CHANGELOG + REGISTRY updated to document the post-finite_mask contract, fail-closed scalar att invariant, and reference-period spillover rows.

Builds on the PR #451 paper review at `docs/methodology/papers/goodman-bacon-2021-review.md`. **Audit outcomes:** (1) Rewrote `_recompute_exact_weights` in `bacon.py` to actually implement Theorem 1 (Eqs. 7-9 + 10e-g) — the prior "exact" implementation was missing the `(1-n_kU)` factor in the subsample variance, did not square the sample share, and added an extraneous `unit_share` factor not present in the paper; the post-hoc sum-to-1 normalization masked the relative-weight error but produced ~0.3% decomposition error vs TWFE on a 3-cohort + never-treated DGP. The rewrite computes the exact numerators of Eqs. 10e/f/g and lets the post-hoc normalization handle the `V̂^D` denominator (Theorem 1's identity guarantees `V̂^D = Σ numerators`). The TWFE-vs-weighted-sum identity now holds at `atol=1e-10` on both noisy and hand-calculable DGPs. (2) Added always-treated warn+remap per paper footnote 11: units whose `first_treat` is at or before the first observable period (`first_treat <= min(time)`, excluding the never-treated sentinels `0` and `np.inf`) are automatically remapped to the `U` (untreated) bucket via an internal column (`__bacon_first_treat_internal__`) with a `UserWarning`. Detection uses ordered-time logic on the **time axis**, so panels whose `time` column has negative or zero-crossing labels (event-time encodings) are handled correctly; the `0` sentinel restriction applies only to `first_treat`, not to `time`, and a real treatment cohort with `first_treat == 0` would still be folded into U today (re-label such cohorts to a non-sentinel value before fitting). The user's original `first_treat` column is preserved unchanged. The count is surfaced as a new `BaconDecompositionResults.n_always_treated_remapped` dataclass field, rendered in `summary()` output when nonzero. **`n_never_treated` reports TRUE never-treated only**, computed from the original user column before remap — remapped always-treated units appear separately as `n_always_treated_remapped`, no double-counting. (3) New methodology test file `tests/test_methodology_bacon.py` (~24 tests across 6 classes: `TestBaconHandCalculation` hand-checks Eqs. 7-9 + 10b-d on a minimal balanced panel at `atol=1e-10`; `TestBaconParityR` skips with a pointer when goldens missing; `TestBaconAlwaysTreatedRemap` regression-tests warn+remap mechanics including user-data-preservation; `TestBaconEdgeCases` exercises no-untreated, single-cohort, unbalanced panel, constant-ATT recovery; `TestBaconWeightModes` locks the new exact-is-default contract; `TestBaconSurveyDesignNarrowing` confirms survey_design composes with exact mode and warn+remap). (4) R `bacondecomp::bacon()` parity generator committed at `benchmarks/R/generate_bacon_golden.R` covering three DGP fixtures (3-groups-with-U, 2-groups-no-U, always-treated-remapped); JSON goldens deferred until `bacondecomp` R package is installed (parity tests skip cleanly with an explicit pointer). (5) `docs/methodology/REGISTRY.md` `## BaconDecomposition` block replaced with the paper-review-sourced entry plus three new sub-notes: weight modes (exact vs approximate), always-treated remap, R parity status. **Explicit removal:** the prior REGISTRY block's "Weights may be negative for later-vs-earlier comparisons" claim was incorrect per Theorem 1 (decomposition weights are strictly positive and sum to 1; negative weights are an estimand-level phenomenon, not estimator-level) and is dropped from the new entry.

Documented synthesis of ingredients (no single published software covers the exact recipe — `did2s` implements Gardner two-stage without rings; the Butts ring estimator has no R/Stata package): Butts (2021) Section 5 / Table 2 identification, Gardner (2022) two-stage residualize-then-fit, and the Conley spatial-HAC vcov shipped in 3.3.3. Handles both panel non-staggered (Equations 5/6/8) and Section 5 staggered timing in one estimator — non-staggered is the special case where all treated units share an onset time. **API:** `SpilloverDiD(rings=[0, 50, 100, 200], conley_coords=("lat","lon"), ...).fit(data, outcome="y", unit="unit", time="t", treatment="D")` (binary D auto-converted to `first_treat`) or `.fit(..., first_treat="first_treat")` (Gardner convention). Result: `SpilloverDiDResults(DiDResults)` with `.att` = `tau_total`, `.spillover_effects` (per-ring `pd.DataFrame` with `coef`/`se`/`t_stat`/`p_value`/`ci_low`/`ci_high`), `.ring_breakpoints`, `.d_bar`, `.n_units_ever_in_ring`, `.n_far_away_obs`, `.is_staggered`. `.coefficients` exposes all `(1+K)` stage-2 entries (`"treatment"` + `"_spillover_"`) plus an `"ATT"` alias keyed to vcov columns. **Methodology spec (committed):** stage-2 regressor is the time-varying `(1 - D_it) * Ring_{it,j}` form (paper page 12's `S_it = S_i * 1{t >= t_treat}` notation; Section 5 Table 2's `S^k_{it}` / `Ring^k_{it,j}`). Reading the literal unit-static `(1 - D_it) * S_i` from Equation 5 is algebraically rank-deficient under TWFE (`(1-D_it) * S_i = S_i - D_it`, with `S_i` absorbed by `mu_i`, leaving `-D_it`); only the time-varying form supports the paper's identification (Proposition 2.3). Stage-1 subsample uses Butts' STRICTER `Omega_0 = {D_it = 0 AND S_it = 0}` (untreated AND unexposed), not TwoStageDiD's `{D_it = 0}` alone — this prevents spillover-contaminated near-controls in pre/post periods from biasing the time FE. **Gardner identity (non-staggered):** a 20-seed deterministic regression test pins `SpilloverDiD.att` against a direct single-stage TWFE ring regression on the full sample (`y ~ mu_i + lambda_t + tau * D_it + sum_j delta_j * (1 - D_it) * Ring_{it,j}`) at `atol=1e-10` — empirically bit-identical, so the reported non-staggered `tau_total` IS the Butts Eqs. 4-6 estimator. **Identification-check policy (period strict, unit warn-and-drop, plus connectivity):** every period must have at least one Omega_0 row (hard `ValueError` — dropping a period removes all units' cross-time identification). Units lacking Omega_0 rows (e.g. baseline-treated units with `D_it = 1` at every observed `t`) are warned-and-dropped: their unit FE is NaN, residualization writes NaN on their rows, and the downstream finite-mask path excludes them from stage 2 — mirrors `TwoStageDiD`'s always-treated convention. Additionally, the supported-units bipartite graph (units linked by shared Omega_0 periods) must form a single connected component; `K > 1` components raise `ValueError` because the FE solver would return only component-specific constants and residualization would silently mix them across components (defense-in-depth — under absorbing treatment the disconnected case may be unreachable through the upstream validators, but the check future-proofs Wave B follow-ups). **Public API restrictions (Wave B MVP):** `covariates=` raises `NotImplementedError` because Gardner-style two-stage requires covariate effects estimated on the untreated-and-unexposed subsample at stage 1 (appending raw covariates only at stage 2 silently biases `tau_total` / `delta_j` on panels with time-varying covariates); non-absorbing / reversible treatment patterns (e.g. `[0, 1, 0]`) raise `ValueError` rather than being silently coerced into "treated from first 1 onward"; non-constant `first_treat` values across rows of the same unit raise `ValueError`; `conley_coords` is required on every fit path (not just `vcov_type="conley"`) because ring construction always uses it. **Far-away control identification:** uses CURRENT-period untreated status (`D_it = 0`) rather than never-treated-only, so all-eventually-treated staggered designs (no never-treated units) can identify the counterfactual via not-yet-treated far-away rows. **Variance (Wave B MVP):** stage-2 OLS variance via `solve_ols` (HC1 / Conley / cluster paths all flow through). The Gardner GMM first-stage uncertainty correction is NOT applied at stage 2 in this PR (documented limitation; planned follow-up extends `two_stage.py::_compute_gmm_variance` to accept a Conley kernel matrix in place of HC1's identity at the influence-function outer-product step). **Deferred features (planned follow-ups):** `event_study=True` per-event-time × ring coefficients (Butts Table 2), `survey_design=` integration, `ring_method="count"` (count-of-treated-in-ring), data-driven `d_bar` selection (Butts 2021b / Butts 2023 JUE Insight), Gardner GMM first-stage correction at stage 2, sparse staggered ring-distance path. **Tests:** `tests/test_spillover.py` (157 tests across ring-construction primitives, validators, fit integration, raw-data invariant, identification MC — non-staggered DGP at 50 seeds + 200-seed `@pytest.mark.slow` variant recovers both `tau_total` and `delta_1`; staggered DGP at 30 seeds anchors both `tau_total` and `delta_1` — Conley plumbing (verifies `solve_ols` is called with `vcov_type="conley"` + Conley kwargs, no silent HC1 fallback), Gardner identity bit-identity, coefficients-vs-vcov alignment, warn-and-drop, rank_deficient_action validation, Omega_0 bipartite-graph connectivity, anticipation behavior on both fit paths). DGP factories `tests/_dgp_utils.py::generate_butts_nonstaggered_dgp` / `generate_butts_staggered_dgp` satisfy Butts Assumptions 1/3/5/7 by construction. - **`ChaisemartinDHaultfoeuille.predict_het` × `placebo`: R-parity on both global and per-path surfaces.** R-verified — `did_multiplegt_dyn(predict_het, placebo)` emits heterogeneity OLS results on backward (placebo) horizons via R's `DIDmultiplegtDYN:::did_multiplegt_main` placebo block (`effect = matrix(-i, ...)` rbind site); the same block runs per-by_level under `did_multiplegt_dyn(by_path, predict_het, placebo)`, so both global `res$results$predict_het` and per-by_level `res$by_level_i$results$predict_het` slots emit backward rows. R's predict_het syntax with `placebo > 0` requires the `c(-1)` sentinel in the horizon vector to trigger "compute heterogeneity for ALL forward (1..effects) AND ALL placebo (1..placebo) positions" — passing positive-only horizons errors with "specified numbers in predict_het that exceed the number of placebos". Python mirrors via `_compute_heterogeneity_test(..., placebo=L_max)` (set automatically from `self.placebo` at both global and per-path call sites in `fit()`) — the function iterates forward (1..L_max) and backward (-1..-L_max) horizons in a single loop with an explicit `out_idx < 0` eligibility guard for backward horizons whose `F_g` is too small (would otherwise silently misread `N_mat` via numpy negative indexing). `results.heterogeneity_effects` uses negative-int keys for backward horizons; `path_heterogeneity_effects` does the same per path. Placebo rows in `to_dataframe(level="by_path")` have non-NaN `het_*` columns when `placebo=True` and `heterogeneity=` are both set. **Survey gate (warn + skip):** `survey_design + placebo + heterogeneity` emits a `UserWarning` at fit-time and falls back to forward-horizon-only heterogeneity on both surfaces — the Binder TSL cell-period allocator's REGISTRY justification is tied to **post-period** attribution; backward-horizon attribution puts ψ_g mass on a pre-period cell, a separate library-extension claim that needs its own derivation. Forward-horizon `predict_het + survey_design` continues to work unchanged on both global and per-path surfaces. The function-level `_compute_heterogeneity_test` keeps a per-iteration `NotImplementedError` backstop for direct callers that bypass fit(). Pre-period allocator derivation deferred to a follow-up methodology PR (tracked in TODO.md). R parity confirmed at `tests/test_chaisemartin_dhaultfoeuille_parity.py::TestDCDHDynRParityHeterogeneityWithPlacebo` (scenario 23, `multi_path_reversible_predict_het_with_placebo_global`, `placebo=2, effects=3, no by_path`) and `::TestDCDHDynRParityByPathHeterogeneityWithPlacebo` (scenario 22, same DGP plus `by_path=3`); pinned at `BETA_RTOL=1e-6` / `SE_RTOL=1e-5` for `beta` / `se` / `t_stat` / `n_obs` and `INFERENCE_RTOL=1e-4` for `p_value` / `conf_int` across 3 paths × (3 forward + 2 placebo) = 15 horizons + 1 global × 5 horizons.

Previously, when event_study=True and horizon_max is set, the code computed `ref_period_check = -1 - self.anticipation` BEFORE validating anticipation, so non-numeric values (None, "1") raised a raw TypeError instead of the targeted ValueError ("anticipation must be a non-negative integer"). Fix: move the anticipation type/value validator above both the horizon_max validator and the ref_period check. P3: split (ring, k) into separate columns in summary() rendering. The prior combined `f"{ring} k={k}"` label was truncated to 15 chars, making distinct horizons within the same ring (e.g. "[50, 200] k=+0" vs "[50, 200] k=+1") visually indistinguishable. New layout for MultiIndex spillover_effects: separate `Ring` (15 chars) + `k` (5 chars) columns. Header width updated to fit the new column. Non-MultiIndex aggregate path unchanged. P3: tighten TestSpilloverDiDEventStudyReduceToAggregate to match the CHANGELOG's bit-identical claim. Previously the test used the default noisy DGP with abs(diff) < 1e-3, but the changelog says "verified bit- identical at machine precision". Fix: deterministic DGP via `error_sd=0.0` + atol=1e-10. Regression tests: - test_non_numeric_anticipation_raises_targeted_value_error: anticipation="1" must raise ValueError, not TypeError. - test_none_anticipation_raises_targeted_value_error: anticipation=None must raise the targeted ValueError too.

The previous docs said H=0 was a "well-defined but semantically distinct" design, but every event_study=True + horizon_max=0 + anticipation=0 fit hit the ref_period guard at -1 and raised. Resolution: lock the contract by rejecting H=0 explicitly with a remediation message ("use event_study=False for the aggregate Wave B spec; event-study mode requires horizon_max>=1 or horizon_max=None"). Updated REGISTRY + CHANGELOG to match. Added test_horizon_max_zero_with_event_study_raises regression. P2: plot_event_study now honors SpilloverDiDResults.reference_period. Wave C's rectangular event_study_effects emits multiple empty horizons (n_obs == 0 on dropped post-direct cells + the reference row); the legacy "first n_obs==0 row" reference detection could pick a non-reference empty horizon as the reference. Fix in _extract_plot_data: prefer results.reference_period when present (truthy attribute), fall back to the legacy n_obs==0 heuristic otherwise. Backward-compatible for estimators without the attribute (CallawaySantAnna, SunAbraham, etc.). Regression test on a Wave C fit with horizon_max=4 (oversized → multiple empty horizons) asserts the inferred reference is -1 not the first empty horizon. P3: soften "Wave B bit-identical" claim. CHANGELOG previously said "reproduces Wave B SEs bit-identically (verified by ...)" implying a pre-Wave-C checkout artifact; the goldens were actually captured on the current (Wave C) event_study=False path. Updated to: "the aggregate stage-2 design construction, fit, and extraction logic on this path are byte-identical to Wave B; the test pins goldens captured on the unchanged aggregate path so any future drift fails the regression." Same softening in the test class docstring.

Builds on the PR #451 paper review at `docs/methodology/papers/goodman-bacon-2021-review.md`. **Audit outcomes:** (1) Rewrote `_recompute_exact_weights` in `bacon.py` to actually implement Theorem 1 (Eqs. 7-9 + 10e-g) — the prior "exact" implementation was missing the `(1-n_kU)` factor in the subsample variance, did not square the sample share, and added an extraneous `unit_share` factor not present in the paper; the post-hoc sum-to-1 normalization masked the relative-weight error but produced ~0.3% decomposition error vs TWFE on a 3-cohort + never-treated DGP. The rewrite computes the exact numerators of Eqs. 10e/f/g and lets the post-hoc normalization handle the `V̂^D` denominator (Theorem 1's identity guarantees `V̂^D = Σ numerators`). The TWFE-vs-weighted-sum identity now holds at `atol=1e-10` on both noisy and hand-calculable DGPs. (2) Added always-treated warn+remap per paper footnote 11: units whose `first_treat` is at or before the first observable period (`first_treat <= min(time)`, excluding the never-treated sentinels `0` and `np.inf`) are automatically remapped to the `U` (untreated) bucket via an internal column (`__bacon_first_treat_internal__`) with a `UserWarning`. Detection uses ordered-time logic on the **time axis**, so panels whose `time` column has negative or zero-crossing labels (event-time encodings) are handled correctly; the `0` sentinel restriction applies only to `first_treat`, not to `time`, and a real treatment cohort with `first_treat == 0` would still be folded into U today (re-label such cohorts to a non-sentinel value before fitting). The user's original `first_treat` column is preserved unchanged. The count is surfaced as a new `BaconDecompositionResults.n_always_treated_remapped` dataclass field, rendered in `summary()` output when nonzero. **`n_never_treated` reports TRUE never-treated only**, computed from the original user column before remap — remapped always-treated units appear separately as `n_always_treated_remapped`, no double-counting. (3) New methodology test file `tests/test_methodology_bacon.py` (~24 tests across 6 classes: `TestBaconHandCalculation` hand-checks Eqs. 7-9 + 10b-d on a minimal balanced panel at `atol=1e-10`; `TestBaconParityR` skips with a pointer when goldens missing; `TestBaconAlwaysTreatedRemap` regression-tests warn+remap mechanics including user-data-preservation; `TestBaconEdgeCases` exercises no-untreated, single-cohort, unbalanced panel, constant-ATT recovery; `TestBaconWeightModes` locks the new exact-is-default contract; `TestBaconSurveyDesignNarrowing` confirms survey_design composes with exact mode and warn+remap). (4) R `bacondecomp::bacon()` parity generator committed at `benchmarks/R/generate_bacon_golden.R` covering three DGP fixtures (3-groups-with-U, 2-groups-no-U, always-treated-remapped); JSON goldens deferred until `bacondecomp` R package is installed (parity tests skip cleanly with an explicit pointer). (5) `docs/methodology/REGISTRY.md` `## BaconDecomposition` block replaced with the paper-review-sourced entry plus three new sub-notes: weight modes (exact vs approximate), always-treated remap, R parity status. **Explicit removal:** the prior REGISTRY block's "Weights may be negative for later-vs-earlier comparisons" claim was incorrect per Theorem 1 (decomposition weights are strictly positive and sum to 1; negative weights are an estimand-level phenomenon, not estimator-level) and is dropped from the new entry.

Documented synthesis of ingredients (no single published software covers the exact recipe — `did2s` implements Gardner two-stage without rings; the Butts ring estimator has no R/Stata package): Butts (2021) Section 5 / Table 2 identification, Gardner (2022) two-stage residualize-then-fit, and the Conley spatial-HAC vcov shipped in 3.3.3. Handles both panel non-staggered (Equations 5/6/8) and Section 5 staggered timing in one estimator — non-staggered is the special case where all treated units share an onset time. **API:** `SpilloverDiD(rings=[0, 50, 100, 200], conley_coords=("lat","lon"), ...).fit(data, outcome="y", unit="unit", time="t", treatment="D")` (binary D auto-converted to `first_treat`) or `.fit(..., first_treat="first_treat")` (Gardner convention). Result: `SpilloverDiDResults(DiDResults)` with `.att` = `tau_total`, `.spillover_effects` (per-ring `pd.DataFrame` with `coef`/`se`/`t_stat`/`p_value`/`ci_low`/`ci_high`), `.ring_breakpoints`, `.d_bar`, `.n_units_ever_in_ring`, `.n_far_away_obs`, `.is_staggered`. `.coefficients` exposes all `(1+K)` stage-2 entries (`"treatment"` + `"_spillover_"`) plus an `"ATT"` alias keyed to vcov columns. **Methodology spec (committed):** stage-2 regressor is the time-varying `(1 - D_it) * Ring_{it,j}` form (paper page 12's `S_it = S_i * 1{t >= t_treat}` notation; Section 5 Table 2's `S^k_{it}` / `Ring^k_{it,j}`). Reading the literal unit-static `(1 - D_it) * S_i` from Equation 5 is algebraically rank-deficient under TWFE (`(1-D_it) * S_i = S_i - D_it`, with `S_i` absorbed by `mu_i`, leaving `-D_it`); only the time-varying form supports the paper's identification (Proposition 2.3). Stage-1 subsample uses Butts' STRICTER `Omega_0 = {D_it = 0 AND S_it = 0}` (untreated AND unexposed), not TwoStageDiD's `{D_it = 0}` alone — this prevents spillover-contaminated near-controls in pre/post periods from biasing the time FE. **Gardner identity (non-staggered):** a 20-seed deterministic regression test pins `SpilloverDiD.att` against a direct single-stage TWFE ring regression on the full sample (`y ~ mu_i + lambda_t + tau * D_it + sum_j delta_j * (1 - D_it) * Ring_{it,j}`) at `atol=1e-10` — empirically bit-identical, so the reported non-staggered `tau_total` IS the Butts Eqs. 4-6 estimator. **Identification-check policy (period strict, unit warn-and-drop, plus connectivity):** every period must have at least one Omega_0 row (hard `ValueError` — dropping a period removes all units' cross-time identification). Units lacking Omega_0 rows (e.g. baseline-treated units with `D_it = 1` at every observed `t`) are warned-and-dropped: their unit FE is NaN, residualization writes NaN on their rows, and the downstream finite-mask path excludes them from stage 2 — mirrors `TwoStageDiD`'s always-treated convention. Additionally, the supported-units bipartite graph (units linked by shared Omega_0 periods) must form a single connected component; `K > 1` components raise `ValueError` because the FE solver would return only component-specific constants and residualization would silently mix them across components (defense-in-depth — under absorbing treatment the disconnected case may be unreachable through the upstream validators, but the check future-proofs Wave B follow-ups). **Public API restrictions (Wave B MVP):** `covariates=` raises `NotImplementedError` because Gardner-style two-stage requires covariate effects estimated on the untreated-and-unexposed subsample at stage 1 (appending raw covariates only at stage 2 silently biases `tau_total` / `delta_j` on panels with time-varying covariates); non-absorbing / reversible treatment patterns (e.g. `[0, 1, 0]`) raise `ValueError` rather than being silently coerced into "treated from first 1 onward"; non-constant `first_treat` values across rows of the same unit raise `ValueError`; `conley_coords` is required on every fit path (not just `vcov_type="conley"`) because ring construction always uses it. **Far-away control identification:** uses CURRENT-period untreated status (`D_it = 0`) rather than never-treated-only, so all-eventually-treated staggered designs (no never-treated units) can identify the counterfactual via not-yet-treated far-away rows. **Variance (Wave B MVP):** stage-2 OLS variance via `solve_ols` (HC1 / Conley / cluster paths all flow through). The Gardner GMM first-stage uncertainty correction is NOT applied at stage 2 in this PR (documented limitation; planned follow-up extends `two_stage.py::_compute_gmm_variance` to accept a Conley kernel matrix in place of HC1's identity at the influence-function outer-product step). **Deferred features (planned follow-ups):** `event_study=True` per-event-time × ring coefficients (Butts Table 2), `survey_design=` integration, `ring_method="count"` (count-of-treated-in-ring), data-driven `d_bar` selection (Butts 2021b / Butts 2023 JUE Insight), Gardner GMM first-stage correction at stage 2, sparse staggered ring-distance path. **Tests:** `tests/test_spillover.py` (157 tests across ring-construction primitives, validators, fit integration, raw-data invariant, identification MC — non-staggered DGP at 50 seeds + 200-seed `@pytest.mark.slow` variant recovers both `tau_total` and `delta_1`; staggered DGP at 30 seeds anchors both `tau_total` and `delta_1` — Conley plumbing (verifies `solve_ols` is called with `vcov_type="conley"` + Conley kwargs, no silent HC1 fallback), Gardner identity bit-identity, coefficients-vs-vcov alignment, warn-and-drop, rank_deficient_action validation, Omega_0 bipartite-graph connectivity, anticipation behavior on both fit paths). DGP factories `tests/_dgp_utils.py::generate_butts_nonstaggered_dgp` / `generate_butts_staggered_dgp` satisfy Butts Assumptions 1/3/5/7 by construction. - **`ChaisemartinDHaultfoeuille.predict_het` × `placebo`: R-parity on both global and per-path surfaces.** R-verified — `did_multiplegt_dyn(predict_het, placebo)` emits heterogeneity OLS results on backward (placebo) horizons via R's `DIDmultiplegtDYN:::did_multiplegt_main` placebo block (`effect = matrix(-i, ...)` rbind site); the same block runs per-by_level under `did_multiplegt_dyn(by_path, predict_het, placebo)`, so both global `res$results$predict_het` and per-by_level `res$by_level_i$results$predict_het` slots emit backward rows. R's predict_het syntax with `placebo > 0` requires the `c(-1)` sentinel in the horizon vector to trigger "compute heterogeneity for ALL forward (1..effects) AND ALL placebo (1..placebo) positions" — passing positive-only horizons errors with "specified numbers in predict_het that exceed the number of placebos". Python mirrors via `_compute_heterogeneity_test(..., placebo=L_max)` (set automatically from `self.placebo` at both global and per-path call sites in `fit()`) — the function iterates forward (1..L_max) and backward (-1..-L_max) horizons in a single loop with an explicit `out_idx < 0` eligibility guard for backward horizons whose `F_g` is too small (would otherwise silently misread `N_mat` via numpy negative indexing). `results.heterogeneity_effects` uses negative-int keys for backward horizons; `path_heterogeneity_effects` does the same per path. Placebo rows in `to_dataframe(level="by_path")` have non-NaN `het_*` columns when `placebo=True` and `heterogeneity=` are both set. **Survey gate (warn + skip):** `survey_design + placebo + heterogeneity` emits a `UserWarning` at fit-time and falls back to forward-horizon-only heterogeneity on both surfaces — the Binder TSL cell-period allocator's REGISTRY justification is tied to **post-period** attribution; backward-horizon attribution puts ψ_g mass on a pre-period cell, a separate library-extension claim that needs its own derivation. Forward-horizon `predict_het + survey_design` continues to work unchanged on both global and per-path surfaces. The function-level `_compute_heterogeneity_test` keeps a per-iteration `NotImplementedError` backstop for direct callers that bypass fit(). Pre-period allocator derivation deferred to a follow-up methodology PR (tracked in TODO.md). R parity confirmed at `tests/test_chaisemartin_dhaultfoeuille_parity.py::TestDCDHDynRParityHeterogeneityWithPlacebo` (scenario 23, `multi_path_reversible_predict_het_with_placebo_global`, `placebo=2, effects=3, no by_path`) and `::TestDCDHDynRParityByPathHeterogeneityWithPlacebo` (scenario 22, same DGP plus `by_path=3`); pinned at `BETA_RTOL=1e-6` / `SE_RTOL=1e-5` for `beta` / `se` / `t_stat` / `n_obs` and `INFERENCE_RTOL=1e-4` for `p_value` / `conf_int` across 3 paths × (3 forward + 2 placebo) = 15 horizons + 1 global × 5 horizons.

Previously the event- study path computed cohort-by-unit distances twice on staggered panels: once in _compute_nearest_treated_distance_staggered for d_it (running min), then again in _compute_event_time_per_row to recover the per-row spillover-trigger onset. On large staggered panels this doubled the dominant spatial work. Fix: thread d_bar into _compute_nearest_treated_distance_staggered as an optional kwarg. When supplied, the cohort loop now ALSO computes trigger_onset_per_unit (the first cohort whose treated units fall within d_bar of unit i) and broadcasts it to rows. The helper's return is now a 4-tuple (d_it, row_unit, row_time, trigger_onset_or_None). _compute_event_time_per_row accepts an optional precomputed_trigger_onset_per_row that, when supplied (as fit() now does on the staggered event-study path), skips the redundant cohort loop. Falls back to inline computation for unit-test callers. Test callsites for _compute_nearest_treated_distance_staggered updated to handle the new 4-tuple via `d_it, row_unit, row_time, _trigger = ...`. P3 docs: llms-full.txt and api/spillover.rst now explicitly state that event_study=True requires horizon_max>=1 or None (horizon_max=0 is rejected, with redirect to event_study=False for the aggregate spec). The previous wording described horizon_max=0 as a meaningful collapsed design, which contradicted the new R5 rejection.

Previously only the staggered fit() call populated `trigger_onset_per_row_cached`; the non-staggered branch left it as None, so `_compute_event_time_per_row` fell back to its dense cohort loop AGAIN, defeating the sparse cutoff in `_compute_nearest_treated_distance_static` and adding avoidable cost on large non-staggered panels. Fix: on the non-staggered branch, derive trigger_onset_per_row directly from `unit_to_d` (already built from the static distance result) and the single shared effective onset. In the non-staggered case the trigger collapses to a constant: any unit within `d_bar` triggers at `shared_effective_onset`; far-away units have NaN trigger. No second pairwise pass needed. P2 docs: remove the unwired `diagnostic_report.event_study_diagnostics` consumability claim from CHANGELOG, llms-full.txt, results.py docstring, REGISTRY.md, and api/spillover.rst. SpilloverDiDResults is NOT registered in DiagnosticReport's `_APPLICABILITY` / `_PT_METHOD` tables, so `DiagnosticReport(spillover_result)` does not route to event-study diagnostics. `plot_event_study` integration IS wired and keeps its claim.

Builds on the PR #451 paper review at `docs/methodology/papers/goodman-bacon-2021-review.md`. **Audit outcomes:** (1) Rewrote `_recompute_exact_weights` in `bacon.py` to actually implement Theorem 1 (Eqs. 7-9 + 10e-g) — the prior "exact" implementation was missing the `(1-n_kU)` factor in the subsample variance, did not square the sample share, and added an extraneous `unit_share` factor not present in the paper; the post-hoc sum-to-1 normalization masked the relative-weight error but produced ~0.3% decomposition error vs TWFE on a 3-cohort + never-treated DGP. The rewrite computes the exact numerators of Eqs. 10e/f/g and lets the post-hoc normalization handle the `V̂^D` denominator (Theorem 1's identity guarantees `V̂^D = Σ numerators`). The TWFE-vs-weighted-sum identity now holds at `atol=1e-10` on both noisy and hand-calculable DGPs. (2) Added always-treated warn+remap per paper footnote 11: units whose `first_treat` is at or before the first observable period (`first_treat <= min(time)`, excluding the never-treated sentinels `0` and `np.inf`) are automatically remapped to the `U` (untreated) bucket via an internal column (`__bacon_first_treat_internal__`) with a `UserWarning`. Detection uses ordered-time logic on the **time axis**, so panels whose `time` column has negative or zero-crossing labels (event-time encodings) are handled correctly; the `0` sentinel restriction applies only to `first_treat`, not to `time`, and a real treatment cohort with `first_treat == 0` would still be folded into U today (re-label such cohorts to a non-sentinel value before fitting). The user's original `first_treat` column is preserved unchanged. The count is surfaced as a new `BaconDecompositionResults.n_always_treated_remapped` dataclass field, rendered in `summary()` output when nonzero. **`n_never_treated` reports TRUE never-treated only**, computed from the original user column before remap — remapped always-treated units appear separately as `n_always_treated_remapped`, no double-counting. (3) New methodology test file `tests/test_methodology_bacon.py` (~24 tests across 6 classes: `TestBaconHandCalculation` hand-checks Eqs. 7-9 + 10b-d on a minimal balanced panel at `atol=1e-10`; `TestBaconParityR` skips with a pointer when goldens missing; `TestBaconAlwaysTreatedRemap` regression-tests warn+remap mechanics including user-data-preservation; `TestBaconEdgeCases` exercises no-untreated, single-cohort, unbalanced panel, constant-ATT recovery; `TestBaconWeightModes` locks the new exact-is-default contract; `TestBaconSurveyDesignNarrowing` confirms survey_design composes with exact mode and warn+remap). (4) R `bacondecomp::bacon()` parity generator committed at `benchmarks/R/generate_bacon_golden.R` covering three DGP fixtures (3-groups-with-U, 2-groups-no-U, always-treated-remapped); JSON goldens deferred until `bacondecomp` R package is installed (parity tests skip cleanly with an explicit pointer). (5) `docs/methodology/REGISTRY.md` `## BaconDecomposition` block replaced with the paper-review-sourced entry plus three new sub-notes: weight modes (exact vs approximate), always-treated remap, R parity status. **Explicit removal:** the prior REGISTRY block's "Weights may be negative for later-vs-earlier comparisons" claim was incorrect per Theorem 1 (decomposition weights are strictly positive and sum to 1; negative weights are an estimand-level phenomenon, not estimator-level) and is dropped from the new entry.

Documented synthesis of ingredients (no single published software covers the exact recipe — `did2s` implements Gardner two-stage without rings; the Butts ring estimator has no R/Stata package): Butts (2021) Section 5 / Table 2 identification, Gardner (2022) two-stage residualize-then-fit, and the Conley spatial-HAC vcov shipped in 3.3.3. Handles both panel non-staggered (Equations 5/6/8) and Section 5 staggered timing in one estimator — non-staggered is the special case where all treated units share an onset time. **API:** `SpilloverDiD(rings=[0, 50, 100, 200], conley_coords=("lat","lon"), ...).fit(data, outcome="y", unit="unit", time="t", treatment="D")` (binary D auto-converted to `first_treat`) or `.fit(..., first_treat="first_treat")` (Gardner convention). Result: `SpilloverDiDResults(DiDResults)` with `.att` = `tau_total`, `.spillover_effects` (per-ring `pd.DataFrame` with `coef`/`se`/`t_stat`/`p_value`/`ci_low`/`ci_high`), `.ring_breakpoints`, `.d_bar`, `.n_units_ever_in_ring`, `.n_far_away_obs`, `.is_staggered`. `.coefficients` exposes all `(1+K)` stage-2 entries (`"treatment"` + `"_spillover_"`) plus an `"ATT"` alias keyed to vcov columns. **Methodology spec (committed):** stage-2 regressor is the time-varying `(1 - D_it) * Ring_{it,j}` form (paper page 12's `S_it = S_i * 1{t >= t_treat}` notation; Section 5 Table 2's `S^k_{it}` / `Ring^k_{it,j}`). Reading the literal unit-static `(1 - D_it) * S_i` from Equation 5 is algebraically rank-deficient under TWFE (`(1-D_it) * S_i = S_i - D_it`, with `S_i` absorbed by `mu_i`, leaving `-D_it`); only the time-varying form supports the paper's identification (Proposition 2.3). Stage-1 subsample uses Butts' STRICTER `Omega_0 = {D_it = 0 AND S_it = 0}` (untreated AND unexposed), not TwoStageDiD's `{D_it = 0}` alone — this prevents spillover-contaminated near-controls in pre/post periods from biasing the time FE. **Gardner identity (non-staggered):** a 20-seed deterministic regression test pins `SpilloverDiD.att` against a direct single-stage TWFE ring regression on the full sample (`y ~ mu_i + lambda_t + tau * D_it + sum_j delta_j * (1 - D_it) * Ring_{it,j}`) at `atol=1e-10` — empirically bit-identical, so the reported non-staggered `tau_total` IS the Butts Eqs. 4-6 estimator. **Identification-check policy (period strict, unit warn-and-drop, plus connectivity):** every period must have at least one Omega_0 row (hard `ValueError` — dropping a period removes all units' cross-time identification). Units lacking Omega_0 rows (e.g. baseline-treated units with `D_it = 1` at every observed `t`) are warned-and-dropped: their unit FE is NaN, residualization writes NaN on their rows, and the downstream finite-mask path excludes them from stage 2 — mirrors `TwoStageDiD`'s always-treated convention. Additionally, the supported-units bipartite graph (units linked by shared Omega_0 periods) must form a single connected component; `K > 1` components raise `ValueError` because the FE solver would return only component-specific constants and residualization would silently mix them across components (defense-in-depth — under absorbing treatment the disconnected case may be unreachable through the upstream validators, but the check future-proofs Wave B follow-ups). **Public API restrictions (Wave B MVP):** `covariates=` raises `NotImplementedError` because Gardner-style two-stage requires covariate effects estimated on the untreated-and-unexposed subsample at stage 1 (appending raw covariates only at stage 2 silently biases `tau_total` / `delta_j` on panels with time-varying covariates); non-absorbing / reversible treatment patterns (e.g. `[0, 1, 0]`) raise `ValueError` rather than being silently coerced into "treated from first 1 onward"; non-constant `first_treat` values across rows of the same unit raise `ValueError`; `conley_coords` is required on every fit path (not just `vcov_type="conley"`) because ring construction always uses it. **Far-away control identification:** uses CURRENT-period untreated status (`D_it = 0`) rather than never-treated-only, so all-eventually-treated staggered designs (no never-treated units) can identify the counterfactual via not-yet-treated far-away rows. **Variance (Wave B MVP):** stage-2 OLS variance via `solve_ols` (HC1 / Conley / cluster paths all flow through). The Gardner GMM first-stage uncertainty correction is NOT applied at stage 2 in this PR (documented limitation; planned follow-up extends `two_stage.py::_compute_gmm_variance` to accept a Conley kernel matrix in place of HC1's identity at the influence-function outer-product step). **Deferred features (planned follow-ups):** `event_study=True` per-event-time × ring coefficients (Butts Table 2), `survey_design=` integration, `ring_method="count"` (count-of-treated-in-ring), data-driven `d_bar` selection (Butts 2021b / Butts 2023 JUE Insight), Gardner GMM first-stage correction at stage 2, sparse staggered ring-distance path. **Tests:** `tests/test_spillover.py` (157 tests across ring-construction primitives, validators, fit integration, raw-data invariant, identification MC — non-staggered DGP at 50 seeds + 200-seed `@pytest.mark.slow` variant recovers both `tau_total` and `delta_1`; staggered DGP at 30 seeds anchors both `tau_total` and `delta_1` — Conley plumbing (verifies `solve_ols` is called with `vcov_type="conley"` + Conley kwargs, no silent HC1 fallback), Gardner identity bit-identity, coefficients-vs-vcov alignment, warn-and-drop, rank_deficient_action validation, Omega_0 bipartite-graph connectivity, anticipation behavior on both fit paths). DGP factories `tests/_dgp_utils.py::generate_butts_nonstaggered_dgp` / `generate_butts_staggered_dgp` satisfy Butts Assumptions 1/3/5/7 by construction. - **`ChaisemartinDHaultfoeuille.predict_het` × `placebo`: R-parity on both global and per-path surfaces.** R-verified — `did_multiplegt_dyn(predict_het, placebo)` emits heterogeneity OLS results on backward (placebo) horizons via R's `DIDmultiplegtDYN:::did_multiplegt_main` placebo block (`effect = matrix(-i, ...)` rbind site); the same block runs per-by_level under `did_multiplegt_dyn(by_path, predict_het, placebo)`, so both global `res$results$predict_het` and per-by_level `res$by_level_i$results$predict_het` slots emit backward rows. R's predict_het syntax with `placebo > 0` requires the `c(-1)` sentinel in the horizon vector to trigger "compute heterogeneity for ALL forward (1..effects) AND ALL placebo (1..placebo) positions" — passing positive-only horizons errors with "specified numbers in predict_het that exceed the number of placebos". Python mirrors via `_compute_heterogeneity_test(..., placebo=L_max)` (set automatically from `self.placebo` at both global and per-path call sites in `fit()`) — the function iterates forward (1..L_max) and backward (-1..-L_max) horizons in a single loop with an explicit `out_idx < 0` eligibility guard for backward horizons whose `F_g` is too small (would otherwise silently misread `N_mat` via numpy negative indexing). `results.heterogeneity_effects` uses negative-int keys for backward horizons; `path_heterogeneity_effects` does the same per path. Placebo rows in `to_dataframe(level="by_path")` have non-NaN `het_*` columns when `placebo=True` and `heterogeneity=` are both set. **Survey gate (warn + skip):** `survey_design + placebo + heterogeneity` emits a `UserWarning` at fit-time and falls back to forward-horizon-only heterogeneity on both surfaces — the Binder TSL cell-period allocator's REGISTRY justification is tied to **post-period** attribution; backward-horizon attribution puts ψ_g mass on a pre-period cell, a separate library-extension claim that needs its own derivation. Forward-horizon `predict_het + survey_design` continues to work unchanged on both global and per-path surfaces. The function-level `_compute_heterogeneity_test` keeps a per-iteration `NotImplementedError` backstop for direct callers that bypass fit().
