🚨 Minor Incident $40.4M/yr
30.0% probability / year +$2.2M vs baseline

🚨 Major Breach $117.9M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$79.7M vs baseline
Sustained containment failure or multiple Reset Events forcing large quarantine, mass evacuation, extended repairs and possible temporary relocation of some operations.

🚨 Catastrophic Reality Degradation $337.9M/yr
1.0% probability / year +$299.7M vs baseline
Rapid, uncontrollable escalation of reality degradation requiring site abandonment, relocation of multiple SCPs, long-term reconstruction and very large indemnity/contingency spends.
irreversible reality failure cross-contamination with other SCPs full site relocation and reconstruction

📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates derive from large, uncertain ranges in the analyst notes (many multi-order-of-magnitude items, unknown Reset frequency, and highly scenario-dependent evacuation/quarantine scope). Many line items are contingent on unknown geographic footprint, population density and Reset event cadence, so overall confidence is low.
