⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $2.4M/yr
82.0% probability / year
Normal, uneventful year with routine operations, monitoring, training, and scheduled research activity.
no dissociation incidents routine research and maintenance
🚨 Minor Incident $2.7M/yr
12.0% probability / year +$300K vs baseline
A limited Dissociation event causing localized property damage, medical treatment, overtime and extra containment activity.
small-scale dissociation localized structural/equipment damage medical treatment and overtime
🚨 Major Breach $7.4M/yr
4.0% probability / year +$5.0M vs baseline
A large dissociation event causing extensive structural damage, casualties, large-scale medical/amnestic operations and significant investigations and rebuilds.
violent dissociation breach of adjacent structures mass casualty and large property loss
🚨 Escalation To Keter $7.4M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$5.0M vs baseline
Escalation requiring activation of the contingency capital plan to relocate or build a more secure off-site containment/research facility.
persistent increase in dissociation frequency inability to contain with existing protocols decision to build remote/high-security facility

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges, enabling a structured estimate; however wide ranges for anomalous R&D, contingency choices and incident frequency leave moderate uncertainty.
