Record-keeping at scale becomes the foundation for analysis. Each outcome, whether typical or unusual, contributes to the stability and clarity of the long-run picture.
Long-horizon measurement matters most when viewed across extended windows. As samples expand, the distribution becomes clearer and anomalies settle into their expected ranges.
