Also, fun fact: it's very good you asked me to step through this process, because in the course of doing so, I actually found a small mistake I'd made that caused the GWF numbers to get inflated across the board, especially for the High AC columns. Fixing that mistake forced me to adjust my conclusion from applying the +1 bonus at level 5 to instead apply it at level 11.
It wasn't a *huge* difference (only about 1-2DPR, depending on which AC column got changed) but it was enough to tip the balancing factor.
