Prediction text
Figure's scale-up path: working in 1 home, then 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, 100,000, 10 million homes on a super-exponential curve. | It's going to work well at 10 homes. It's going to work well at 100. It's going to work well at a thousand. It's gonna be 10,000. It's going to be 100,000. It's gonna be a 10 million. So, I think it's going to be like um uh super exponential growth curve.
Watch events: Figure 03 shipment volume; BMW, 2nd customer deployment count

Calibration plot (stated vs observed)
Evidence about this node from Brett Adcock is multiplied by κ in /api/intake. Lower κ = less weight; floors at 0.10 (effectively silenced) and caps at 1.00 (full weight).
Reference class
This node isn't linked to a reference class. The Bayesian update applies without outside-view blending.
