 **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.  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. ​
