% Description:
%   Compare first four cumulants of g²(θ) for two datasets.
%
% Inputs:
%   results1, results2 : g2_analysis_results objects
%
% Notes:
%   Dataset 1 = Solid line
%   Dataset 2 = Dashed line
%   Marker shape encodes θ value (consistent across datasets)
%   Dataset colors are distinct
