💡 2025 REVISIONS TO PPS SYSTEM:
International bonus redesign: weight by event is now tiered with Olympics > World/Canada Cup > 4 Nations Face-Off; bonus for event MVP; players can now exceed previous max score of 10 as part of redesign
Award Share bonus: where full award voting breakdowns were not available (mostly pre-1980s), voting results have been given a multiplier to provide equitable bonus comparable to modern voting system
