⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $1.0M/yr
94.0% probability / year
Normal year with routine operations, no major incidents; ongoing containment and care costs only.
no breach routine medical and research activities
🚨 Minor Incident $1.2M/yr
3.0% probability / year +$200K vs baseline
Limited containment event requiring short-term repairs, local investigation, overtime and limited legal/PR work.
small containment breach localized infrastructure damage
🚨 Major Breach $4.5M/yr
1.0% probability / year +$3.5M vs baseline
Major containment failure or another Incident-3130-F scale event requiring large-scale reconstruction, large forensic/recovery operations and significant compensation/legal spending.
floor-scale disappearance or large structural loss multiple missing personnel extensive reconstruction
🚨 Legal Public Exposure $2.3M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$1.2M vs baseline
Significant public leak or prolonged litigation producing large legal bills, settlements, and extended PR/cover operations.
public leak class-action or high-cost settlements extended media/legal operations

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and estimated ranges, so totals are reasonably well-defined; however large uncertainties remain around missing-person outcomes, legal exposure, and whether neutralization is durable, so precision is limited.
