Recast schedule buffers and fixture overrides explain the production model

The source starts wrap day at twenty-four and adds the maximum of zero and reshoot days minus two. Three reshoot days produce day twenty-five; five produce day twenty-seven. Bars share twelve pixels per completion day. This is an assigned schedule rule, not proof of a real production deadline. The same two-day buffer converts three and five reshoot days into one and three added days. Bars share one hundred pixels per delay day. Production day shifts the drawn reshoot starting position; it does not enter this completion formula. The exact Nancy Robertson fixture with three reshoot days, production day fourteen and forty-five thousand dollar penalty replaces the generic computed result with sixty-eight thousand dollars. Bars show that saved sixty-eight thousand result and the forty-five thousand penalty at four pixels per thousand dollars. The difference is twenty-three thousand, not an independently measured cost. Complete native audit JSON retains the fixture and results; reset, four-width resize and first-footer placement preserve the source. Casting and budget claims remain unverified.
