Distribution Explorer

Two views on the cost of probability. Left: canonical PDFs and PMFs ranked by SuperBEST node cost. Right: how the 265 catalog equations distribute across cost bins — the shape of the working cost landscape.

Most catalog equations cost between 4 and 10 nodes. The long tail (16+) is the expensive compound domain: coupled ODE expressions, multi-factor economics, composite thermodynamic potentials.
