Prompt:
You are an operations research expert analyzing the results from three different optimization solvers. Based on the original mathematical formulation and solver execution results, provide a comprehensive analysis and final recommendation.

ORIGINAL MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION:
## 4. Mathematical Optimization Formulation

#### Decision Variables
- \( s_i \): Number of bikes in shortage at station \( i \).
- \( e_i \): Number of bikes in excess at station \( i \).

#### Objective Function
Minimize the total penalty costs associated with bike shortages and excesses across all stations:

\[
\text{Minimize } Z = \sum_{i} \left( \text{shortage\_penalty}_i \times s_i + \text{excess\_penalty}_i \times e_i \right)
\]

Where:
- \(\text{shortage\_penalty}_i\) and \(\text{excess\_penalty}_i\) are the penalty costs per bike in shortage and excess at station \( i \), respectively. These values are assumed to be provided as part of the business configuration parameters.

#### Constraints
1. **Total Bikes Constraint**: The total number of bikes in shortage and excess must equal the total number of bikes available in the system.
   \[
   \sum_{i} (s_i + e_i) = \text{Total\_Bikes}
   \]

2. **Non-negativity Constraints**: The number of bikes in shortage and excess at each station must be non-negative.
   \[
   s_i \geq 0, \quad e_i \geq 0 \quad \forall i
   \]

3. **Dock Capacity Constraints**: The sum of the number of bikes in shortage and the expected demand at each station must not exceed the station's dock capacity.
   \[
   s_i + \text{expected\_demand}_i \leq \text{dock\_count}_i \quad \forall i
   \]

Data Source Verification:
- \(\text{dock\_count}_i\) is sourced from `station.dock_count`.
- \(\text{expected\_demand}_i\) is sourced from `expected_demand.expected_demand`.
- \(\text{Total\_Bikes}\) is a parameter representing the total number of bikes available in the system, assumed to be provided as part of the business configuration.
- \(\text{shortage\_penalty}_i\) and \(\text{excess\_penalty}_i\) are assumed to be provided as part of the business configuration parameters.

This linear model can be solved using standard linear programming techniques to determine the optimal allocation of bikes across stations, minimizing the total penalty costs associated with shortages and excesses.
