Read the explanation
This saved timeline is an assumption-based scenario, not a verified player return, medical readiness assessment or actual team forecast. It fixes post-debut pressure at thirty six point five percent for every input. Pre-debut pressure multiplies that anchor by one minus the chosen dropoff fraction. At twenty eight point five percent dropoff, thirty six point five times zero point seven one five is twenty six point zero nine seven five, displayed as twenty six point one percent. The difference is ten point four percentage points after display rounding, not a twenty eight point five percentage-point subtraction. The animated pressure bar shrinks on one common percentage scale. Reliance changes the text headline and necessity label; it does not enter this pressure formula. The source success label peaks at eighty four percent in week four. Earlier weeks lose five point five points per week, floored at sixty five. Later weeks lose three point two points per week, floored at sixty eight. Weeks two, four, six and eight therefore display seventy three, eighty four, seventy seven point six and seventy one point two percent. The plotted points follow those exact code rules, with weeks nine and ten both at sixty eight. The source calls this historical success, but no sample counts, fitting procedure or outcome dataset are used by the formula. It is a programmed scenario label, not an empirically validated probability. The timeline efficiency drawing is a separate heuristic, not the same success curve. Before the selected debut week it computes fifty two minus zero point seven five times dropoff, plus zero point eight times the week, floored at twenty. With week-four debut and twenty eight point five dropoff, weeks one through three are thirty one point four two five, thirty two point two two five and thirty three point zero two five. Debut week jumps directly to seventy six. Later weeks are eighty two plus three times weeks since debut, capped at ninety four, so week five is eighty five and week eight reaches ninety four. The chart deliberately contains that branch jump. Native presets, sliders, reset and JSON export can inspect these assumptions. With the remote D3 library blocked, the source supplies its own SVG fallback; sports quotations, comparison history and forecast labels remain unverified source catalog claims.
