Enhanced AML via L2-point mass loss in the RLOF channel alters ELM WD internal structure and mass-radius relation, reproducing observed shorter orbital periods.
Reconstruction of GRO J1655-40, SAX J1819.3-2525 and 4U 1543-47 requires CE efficiencies α_0.5U ≳6.7, α_U ≳4.2, α_H ≳1.7 with no solutions below unity, implying need for additional energy or formalism changes plus natal kicks ≳50 km/s for 4U 1543-47.
