Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $6.5M/yr
93.0% probability / year
Normal operational year with no major incidents; routine monitoring, memetic operations and liaison work proceed as planned.
no breaches ongoing memetic/liaison operations routine replacements/maintenance
🚨 Minor Incident $7.0M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$500K vs baseline
Localized anomaly or small containment incident requiring rapid memetic patching, legal emergency support and limited MTF deployment.
small breach or public awareness spike targeted media backlash limited MTF deployment
🚨 Major Breach $13.5M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$7.0M vs baseline
Significant containment failure or wide exposure requiring large-scale memetic countermeasures, legal operations and full contingency spending.
public exposure or rapid awareness cascade multi-site incidents large-scale MTF mobilization and national media response

Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 6 [#4] Six unmarked Foundation operatives providing continuous on-site security (multiple shifts).
Monitoring Analyst 3 [#5] Three analysts in 24/7 watch rotation to interpret Kant data.
Supervisor / Senior Analyst 2 [#5] Two senior analysts/supervisors for incident command.
Research Scientist / Medical Officer 4 [#9] Four researchers/clinicians dedicated to Hume-discrepancy study and confidential medical monitoring.
📋 Confidence Notes
Line-item recurring and one-time estimates are provided explicitly in analyst notes and therefore reasonably grounded, but memetic operations, liaison cooperation with sports leagues, and contingency usage are highly variable and can change costs by orders of magnitude; this yields a medium confidence rating.
