⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $4.1M/yr
84.0% probability / year
Normal operational year with no major incidents; routine staffing, maintenance, and legal/cover-up activity only.
no containment incidents routine operations scheduled training and maintenance
🚨 Minor Incident $4.6M/yr
12.0% probability / year +$500K vs baseline
Localized naming event affecting a small group or site personnel requiring targeted amnestics, MTF deployment, and increased legal/PR activity.
small public exposure medical bay incident localized mass rename
🚨 Major Breach $7.1M/yr
3.0% probability / year +$3.0M vs baseline
Significant containment breach or widespread renaming affecting hundreds or key public figures, requiring large MTF mobilization, extensive amnestics, legal settlements, and identity remediation.
containment escape mass renaming via media/water source high-profile public figure affected
🚨 Catastrophic Renaming Event $12.1M/yr
1.0% probability / year +$8.0M vs baseline
Nation- or region-scale renaming incident (e.g., contaminated water/media) requiring emergency national-level response, mass amnestic deployments, relocations, and extraordinary legal/financial interventions.
contamination of public water/media simultaneous multi-site activation mass public exposure

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide many line-item estimates and explicit ranges, enabling a mid-confidence estimate; uncertainty remains in incident frequencies, upper-range R&D costs, and legal/PR volatility which could push annual costs much higher.
