⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $19.2M/yr
87.0% probability / year
Conservative global posture with ~12 manifestations per year and normal operations; no major exposures or sustained escalation.
~12_manifests_per_year no_high-profile_exposure normal_operational_tempo
🚨 High Frequency Weekly $35.0M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$15.8M vs baseline
Manifestations increase to weekly frequency (≈52/yr), requiring sustained high-response posture, larger PR operations and more frequent per-event costs.

🚨 Major Breach $60.0M/yr
3.0% probability / year +$40.8M vs baseline
High-profile exposure or legal/physical breach resulting in major litigation, large settlements, emergency scaling and significant one-off costs.

Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 60 [#1] Rapid-response operatives (Task Force Sigma-42), rotating shifts for 24/7 availability.
Handlers / Specialists (Epsilon-12) 12 [#2] Stationary containment/handling team (Task Force Epsilon-12) including memetic safety officer and specialist handlers.
📋 Confidence Notes
Many line items provide explicit dollar estimates which allows a reasoned aggregation; uncertainty remains around manifestation frequency, per-event utilization of airlift, and the size/frequency of high-profile exposures, so overall confidence is medium.
