Can you share what you tried before this? The Madrid example makes it feel concrete.

Thanks for making it less intimidating.

Now I want a spreadsheet.

The Tuesday test is undefeated.

I like the idea, but the setup probably matters a lot. The first week version is even more interesting.

Anecdotally, this tracks with what I have seen. The Warsaw example makes it feel concrete.

Helpful and not preachy, which is rare. The a tiny balcony detail changes the whole answer.

The lumpur angle is what sold me. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability.

Agree completely. The simple version is underrated. The uncertainty is part of what makes it interesting.

I was going to disagree, but your second sentence got me.
