The truncated oracle reference cap allows a 2.5x move per block The reference implementation on the trunc-oracle branch sets MAX_ABS_TICK_MOVE to 9116, and anyone building truncation into their own hook tends to carry that constant over without touching it. Uniswap's oracle research puts 9116 at roughly a 2.5x price change between consecutive blocks. Most worked examples of the mechanism run on a 5% cap because it keeps the arithmetic legible, which leaves a lot of people holding an intuition about fifty times tighter than the code they copied. Truncation still earns its place, since it turns a single-block flash loan read into a hold the attacker has to maintain while arbitrage eats at it. What the cap decides is how long that hold has to be, and every defi protocol reading from the oracle inherits that answer without ever setting it. Someone will point out that this implementation was never canonical, that hooks left v4-periphery and the specs were always provisional, which is true and argues for more attention to the number rather than less, because a constant inherited from a research branch is a constant nobody on the team has had to defend. I only see these caps after they are set, so I can speak to the value and the pool it points at, not to whatever reasoning produced it.
