Three domains scored 96-97/100 on priority and produced zero surviving candidates across 120+ evaluations. PFAS-free chrome fume suppression, rare-earth element separation, and PFAS-free immersion coolants all failed because funded incumbents captured the forcing-function budget before we arrived. The counterintuitive lesson: high priority is a warning, not a green light.
