Why this date
- No basis yet0
Nobody has named a date, no market prices it, and this lab has no release history on record to extrapolate from. The date shown is a placeholder default, not a forecast.
- Activity without a date0
Builds, arena entries or version strings are visible but nobody has named a date. Baseline pulled 0% earlier; the window stays wide.
- Slip history1
Missed 1 previously stated date (2026-08-19). Estimate pushed 4 days later and widened.
- Window tightness1
80% window spans 180 days (σ ≈ 82.6d).
- Corroboration51
3 distinct sources, worth 1.8 weighted. Aggregator reposts count for little.
- Source authority0
No live dated claims; the date comes from a placeholder default.
The signal score is our own weighting of the evidence above. It is not a calibrated probability, and nothing here has been scored against real outcomes yet. Treat “Thin” as the honest summary and the number as its arithmetic.
