Your array of counties within the Philly zone does not comport with Jimrtex's map. Berks was excised, and 3 counties to the west added. That adds up to a cover and pack penalty no?

Why on earth have I thought all this time that Berks was in the UCC?  Sad

Has anyone in the Wisconsin case via an amicus brief or otherwise pointed out that the efficiency metric pushed by the Dems takes no cognizance of chops? In other words, any metric which focuses on chops and erosity (including - to deal with the Michigan law fail - intra-county erosity where a county is chopped), should not be characterized as an illicit gerrymander even if the result is "inefficient?"
