How it works
Find each leaf pair’s common ancestor and sum the branches along their connecting path. Ignore an optional branch above the root.
The sample gives A–B = 1+4+2 = 7, A–C = 8 and B–C = 5.
Limits
At most 64 uniquely named leaves. Every non-root branch needs an explicit length; no unit weights are invented. Values use JavaScript numbers and imply no dates or evolutionary model.
