⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $931K/yr

🚨 Minor Incident $1.4M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$500K vs baseline
Localized non-Euclidean recurrence or limited biohazard event requiring emergency deployment, limited remediation, and increased forensic effort.

🚨 Major Breach $3.9M/yr
1.0% probability / year +$3.0M vs baseline
Large-scale recurrence or containment failure requiring full resealing, mass remediation/cremation, heavy cover-up, and reserve drawdown.

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges enabling mid-range estimates, but large ranges for sealing, contingency reserves, and cover operations produce substantial uncertainty; probability estimates for recurrence are judgment calls.
