Card-removal benchmark DEP385 measures Two-Pip (Deuce) (Rank-2) scarcity at 75% depth in a 8-deck shoe: 28 removed ranks leave 4 in the 104-card remainder, shifting Banker win share to 45.8621% (0.5947% edge, 4% Vig).
Combinatorial weighting in DEP385 (104 cards left from 416 at 75% depth) is governed by two rules: on banker total 4, (dep385) banker draws against player third-card (8d-75%) 2 through 7; removing 2s (dep385·8d-75%) trims low-pip player third-card triggers, and three-quarters of the shoe (dep385-8d) has been dealt and winning (4/32) banker wagers return 0.96 units (dep385-8d·4/32) net per unit risked (+0.52 bps per Rank-2 removed).
