Data Notes

From Stepzero
Stepzero produces these reports to provide a calm, evidence-first record of how draw patterns unfold over time. The aim is clarity and continuity - a reference point for long-horizon tracking rather than a call to action.
Additional Context
Long-horizon measurement matters most when viewed across extended windows. As samples expand, the distribution becomes clearer and anomalies settle into their expected ranges.
Adding to the Long-Term Record
This result adds a measurable entry to the long-term record. Over time, those entries are what sharpen distribution analysis and reveal whether the system is tracking its expected cadence.
