Drought
The active gap since a combo's most recent prior appearance in a specific game and draw session, measured only after that combo has debuted at least once.
Why It Matters
Drought is a post-debut concept. Never-seen combos are absent, not in drought, so mixing the two distorts table logic immediately.
How Stepzero Uses It
Stepzero includes only debuted combos in drought tables and computes active gap depth from each combo's most recent prior hit.
Example
If 2713 last appeared 184 Florida Pick 4 EVE draws ago, its active drought in that game/session is 184 draws.
