Additional Context
Long-horizon tracking is the only reliable way to separate short-term noise from persistent drift. By logging each outcome against its expected cadence, the system builds a distribution profile that becomes more stable as the sample grows. 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.
Adding to the Long-Term Record
