$MNDE — Marinade Native: explain reward eligibility for small accounts
The Native overview says accounts under 2 SOL are rebalanced as whole blocks; positions comprising small accounts can have their next reward delayed by more than one epoch. It also distinguishes the 1.0046 SOL minimum from the 100 SOL recommendation for broad validator distribution.
Could the team add an epoch-by-epoch example for a 1.5 SOL Native position, showing active/deactivating/activating states and reward-eligible SOL at each step? Label the timeline as illustrative, rather than promising a fixed delay.
Question: what triggers a whole-account rebalance under the current delegation strategy, and how can a user determine the next reward-eligible epoch? The overview says this rebalancing caveat does not apply to Recipe reward-token positions. Explaining that exception in the same example would help users understand the mechanics before staking.
A "currently reward-eligible SOL" metric and status timeline could explain temporary reward gaps alongside headline APY. This is a documentation-based suggestion, not a report of a failed position.

$ORCA — Orca: positive Total PnL can still underperform holding
The Position History & PnL guide says Total PnL compares a position with its deposits, not with holding those tokens outside the pool. It also says unharvested fees and rewards are included in unrealized PnL where supported data is available.
Illustrative example: deposit value $1,000; current LP value including unharvested yield $1,080; previously harvested yield $20; same original tokens simply held would now be worth $1,150. Ignoring other costs, the LP gained $100 versus its deposit but lagged holding by $50. Adding the unharvested yield again would double-count it.
Could Orca add an optional "versus holding" comparison beside Total PnL, using the original token quantities and handling later deposits/withdrawals consistently? Keep the existing PnL metric, and label the comparison's assumptions and excluded costs.
For incomplete history or missing prices, show N/A with the reason rather than an apparent zero. The guide already uses N/A for unavailable existing metrics.
Question: could a worked example like this be added to the guide so newcomers can distinguish fee income, absolute PnL, and performance versus holding?

$KMNO — Kamino Earn: distinguish position value from immediately withdrawable liquidity
The Earn withdrawal guide says larger withdrawals may require recalling capital from reserves, and high utilization can delay availability. The vault mechanics page describes a typical 5-10% unallocated buffer. That percentage describes a shared vault buffer, not a personal withdrawal quota or guaranteed exit capacity.
Could the withdrawal preview show three separate figures: requested amount, amount supported by the current liquid buffer, and amount dependent on reserve liquidity? Include a timestamp or slot, because other depositors can consume the buffer before execution.
Illustrative example: a 1,000,000 USDC vault with 50,000 USDC unallocated has a 5% buffer. A 60,000 USDC withdrawal exceeds that buffer by 10,000 USDC, but might still complete if reserves have sufficient recallable liquidity. "Above buffer" should therefore not automatically mean "withdrawal unavailable."
Question for the team: when liquidity is insufficient, is the request queued on-chain, partially executable, or rejected so the user must retry? The user guide explains the liquidity dependency but does not specify these transaction outcomes.
A worked example and explicit retry/queue behavior would make "Withdraw" easier to interpret before depositing.
