**Motivation:** Fiducial cross section measurements and STXS in Higgs physics are being developed and will provide non-maximally sensitive input to global SMEFT fits. Direct experimental top-down SMEFT interpretations of LHC SM measurements in Higgs and top physics have not yet taken off, due mostly to a difficulty of handling the richness and diversity of the many theoretical approaches together with the intrinsic technical complications. | **Motivation:** Fiducial cross section measurements and STXS in Higgs physics are being developed and will provide non-maximally sensitive input to global SMEFT fits.
