I'm not sure that I understand. What does it mean for a noncompete to apply only to base compensation? Is the idea that if you join a competing company within X months of leaving your old company, you need to repay your base salary to

That's not quite right. If the study is underpowered at n = 50 --- which is extremely likely --- statistically significant estimates are likely to be inflated. And as power declines, they also become more likely to have the wrong sign

I'm a professor in a non-STEM field in the U.S. Even if we put foreign-language issues aside, it's surprising to see how much this screenwriter's experiences carry over into academia.
