Symbolic regression on GWTC-4 posteriors yields closed-form analytic formulae for merger-rate evolution, effective-spin dependencies on mass ratio and redshift, and conditional mass-ratio distributions at specific primary mass peaks.

No evidence for core-collapse formed low-spin IMBHs in GWTC-4, with 90% upper limit on merger rate of 0.077 Gpc^{-3} yr^{-1}, low-spin BH mass truncation at 65 solar masses consistent with pair-instability gap lower edge, and high-spin IMBHs from hierarchical mergers.
No model-independent evidence for a peak in binary black hole spin tilts is found in GWTC-4; mass-spin magnitude correlation is confirmed but mass-tilt correlation is not.
