As I mentioned, I had been working with thprac, and I used the practice tool to start in a specific section of the stage (namely Momoyo’s 6th spell card). Most other characters have it easy, for optimal damage you can stay in place or even just go to the bottom before the card starts and then you are fully ready by the time Momoyo spawns. But Sakuya works a bit differently because she needs a tiny bit of setup to make her knives converge, you have to move up a tiny bit up while unfocused to change the direction of the bullets, and then you have to press focus to lock it in place, then move back down so they converge at the boss and you can make sure all knives hit. This doesn’t take more than a couple seconds, but vertical movement has a little bit of effect on your overall damage and so if you are a bit too late by the time the boss spawns then that’s going to add a bit of volatility into your calculations. Not too much though, as a matter of fact I had messed up with Marisa at one point because I moved down after the card had already started, so after I finished the capture I redid it and the time decreased by a grand total of 0.04 seconds. But that was a noticeable mistake, as in, you could obviously tell I had pressed down after the card had already started. If I made such a mistake while setting up with Sakuya, then it must have barely been noticeable by the human eye because at least visually, I was already completely static when Momoyo used her card. And yet her capture times have as much volatility as ~2.8 full seconds of difference (9.86 vs 12.7 seconds) in the exact same condition (Saki + x1.8 Centipede). Something I don’t really think this kind of error could be responsible for. If the data in pic related looks wrong then read the info in the image.

In general I can’t figure out where things go wrong. Is it a bug with Sakuya? With Saki’s card? Maybe even with thprac, even though all other characters worked just fine? I honestly couldn’t tell. (cont.)
