live confidence 0.90 b4c9335d

Per-language mean dependency-length optimality Omega-bar=(D_rand-D_obs)/(D_rand-D_min), using an EXACT projective D_min (solver unit-tested equal to brute force over all projective linearizations on 7000 random trees), has mean 0.362, median 0.399 and IQR [0.235, 0.504] across those 156 UD v2.15 languages.
