📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line-item estimates for most categories, giving moderate confidence in budgeting for routine and incident costs; uncertainty remains around thaumaturgic maintenance needs and political/existential scenarios (catastrophic decommissioning), so tail risks are imprecise.
