Arrow is the account's engine — 71 results at A$19.32 CPA, roughly 2.5× cheaper than the A$49.09 blended average — and deserves the bulk of freed budget. Three bleeders (Responding too, Option, Testing – Copy 6) are burning ~A$1,237 at a loss or at 2×+ blended CPA with little to show. The big-spend workhorses (Human Struggle, A new way, Testing – Copy 3) run above blended but under the money-losing ceiling, so hold and watch rather than scale. Net move: cut the three bleeders and pour that spend into Arrow, with a small conservative test into First option.
