📋 Confidence Notes

Estimates incorporate wide ranges from analyst notes and cover speculative, scenario-dependent expenditures (off-world outposts, Veil-breaking contingencies). Many line items (platform cooperation, distance/behavior of SCP-7612, political choices) are highly uncertain, so overall confidence is low.
