You are golden.
I like your style bobjob. I enjoy reading your posts .
We can start with a theory, followed by two facts
Here is my idea -the biggest fan Leaf you're looking at there ---it is the boss
it is the champion
it is winning.
Light drives photosynthesis. It is superior at what every other leaf is trying to do .
You asked it to veg- it's winning, don't cut it off.
Facts - Phototropism
Leaves will maneuver themselves to where they want to be. Happens really fast .

The executive completely defoliated every single fan leaf, on one of these plants. Defoliated at three and a half weeks of veg , they flipped to 12/12 four days later . It appears on the front right hand side of this photo.
It is still flowering at this time. The only observation I can make is the defoliated plant produced the most uneven canopy
