Breakdown Reliability for Saturated Fixed-Effect Inference

Fixed-effect saturation does not itself distort conventional inference, but classical measurement error does. Under a local noise drift $σ_ν^2=c^2/n$, the FE-OLS $t$-statistic converges to a non-central normal; saturation contributes a common $\sqrt{1-ρ}$ scaling rather than preferentially destroyin
