CPS exhibits must carry the comparative argument on their own. A reviewer should grasp the cross-case or over-time story from the figure and its caption without hunting through the text. Because references, tables, and figures do not count toward the CPS word limit, exhibits are where you spend space — but only if each one earns its place.
【Main figure】what it shows + why it is the finding
【Main table】headline spec + which robustness columns; rest → appendix
【Comparative descriptive】the exhibit showing cross-case/over-time leverage
【Self-contained?】captions/notes give estimator, FE, clustering, N, CI [Y/N]
【Production】grayscale-safe + vector/high-res [Y/N]
