Percentiles show the spread: P5 is a bad rip, P95 is a great one.

Research Sources
Pull rates are never hardcoded: every observation is stored with its source and confidence,
merged into a weighted model, then verified by simulating 100,000+ packs and comparing
the results back against the research data.
