Remove excessive individual unit test files and consolidate to:
- Single filer medium income (2.75% bracket)
- High income married couple (3.15% bracket)
- Low income family (lowest exemption tier)

Reduces test count from 81 to 3 focused integration tests
that verify the 2025 parameter values.

📋 PR Review Summary

✅ Review Complete - Well-implemented Update

This PR correctly updates Ohio's income tax model for tax year 2025. I've verified the implementation through code review and test execution.

🔍 Analysis Results

Parameter Updates Verified

  • Personal Exemptions (2025): $2,350 (≤$40k), $2,100 ($40k-$80k), $1,850 (>$80k)
  • Tax Rates (2025): 0% → 2.75% → 3.15% bracket structure
  • Base amount at $26,050 threshold: ~$342

Test Verification

✅ 200 Ohio tests passed (including 3 new 2025 integration tests)
✅ Tax calculations verified manually:
   - Single $68,050 income → $1,439 tax (correct)
   - Exemption tiers working correctly

✅ Strengths

  1. Excellent Reference Organization: Ohio Revised Code citations consistently moved to top of reference lists
  2. Comprehensive 2025 References: All parameter files include 2025 IT 1040 Booklet references with correct page numbers
  3. Good Integration Tests: Three scenarios testing different income levels and filing statuses
  4. Clean Formatting: Trailing whitespace cleanup and consistent YAML formatting

📝 Minor Suggestions (Non-blocking)

  1. PR Checklist: Consider checking off completed items in the PR description since the work appears complete:

    • ✅ Review 2025 IT 1040 booklet and note page numbers
    • ✅ Update all parameter files with 2025 references
    • ✅ Verify all 2025 values match official booklet
    • ✅ Add 2025 test scenarios
    • ✅ Create integration test with realistic 2025 household
  2. Third Integration Test Enhancement: The "High income married couple" test only verifies exemptions and taxable income but not the final tax amount. Consider adding oh_income_tax_before_non_refundable_credits: 3_834 to verify the full calculation pipeline at the 3.15% bracket.

🧮 Calculation Verification

For the first test case (single filer, $68,050 income):

Income: $68,050 (middle exemption tier)
Exemption: 1 × $2,100 = $2,100
Taxable income: $68,050 - $2,100 = $65,950
Tax: $342 base + 2.75% × ($65,950 - $26,050) = $1,439 ✓

✅ Ready to Merge

The implementation is correct, well-documented, and all tests pass. Great job on the reference organization improvements throughout the parameter files.
