Been sitting with something about TermMax's XP system that doesn't quite add up. The scoring itself is genuinely fair same formula, same daily accrual, same snapshot for everyone. No complaints there. But XP isn't the actual reward, it's a stand-in for it. The real reward only shows up when you close a leveraged GT position, and that step runs through execution, which the snapshot never touches. Someone closing through the default UI and someone closing by hitting the contract directly on Etherscan can land in very different places on slippage, even with identical XP sitting on the board.

That's the part I keep coming back to, especially because TermMax leans so hard on fixed-rate certainty as its whole pitch. The promise is that you know your outcome ahead of time. But if what you actually take home depends on which interface you happened to use, that certainty was never fully structural it was partly a skill tax, hiding underneath a system built specifically to remove that kind of variance.

To be clear, I don't have real slippage numbers comparing the two methods, so this is more of a mechanism-level suspicion than a measured claim. Still, I'd genuinely like to see TermMax publish execution data broken out by method. That's where this question actually gets settled.
