Research direction

Start by locating the _get_peak() function and the Evoked.get_peak() entry point, then inspect how the existing negative and positive modes are handled. Check nearby tests for peak selection behavior. Done means the Evoked object supports the proposed max mode and the relevant behavior is covered by tests.
