⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $2.1M/yr
83.0% probability / year
Normal operational year with weekly D-Class runs, scheduled research and routine maintenance; no containment incidents requiring major repairs or large-scale public exposure.
weekly D-Class operations scheduled research routine maintenance and training
🚨 Minor Incident $2.4M/yr
15.0% probability / year +$265K vs baseline
Localized transmutation or small structural/window event requiring material repairs, targeted emergency activation and limited amnestic/legal response.
small wall/window transmutation one-time materials repair moderate amnestic/legal response
🚨 Major Breach $4.2M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$2.0M vs baseline
Significant containment breach/transmutation affecting mission-critical infrastructure (east wall/window into thermoregulatory chamber) requiring full emergency response, structural repair, major legal/PR mitigation and extended recovery.
large-scale wall/window transmutation site infrastructure damage major public exposure/legal action

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges but key drivers (D-Class usage frequency, scale of transmutation events and legal exposure) are highly variable; mid-point estimates were used and reserves included to hedge uncertainty.
