📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line-item estimates and sensible conservative contingencies, but geopolitical, archaeological, and anomalous behaviors create substantial uncertainty in magnitude and frequency of major incidents; contingency/black-budget assumptions also introduce variability.
