Bytecode similarity to audited upstream with behavior deviation

Balancer (v2 + v3)'s assessment for RD-F-171 — scored not_applicable on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Balancer is an original protocol; there is no upstream audited codebase to compare against for bytecode similarity deviation. This factor is designed for AI-generated forks that mimic an audited protocol while deviating in behavior. N/A for an original protocol.
