Where points come from & what changes the outcomes

📊 Impact🎛 Lab
Every skill-position point (2019–2025 (excl. 2020)) is decomposed by the scoring setting that produced it, then re-scored under alternate rules to see how many outcomes would actually change. Computed entirely from local box-score data — player points times the league scoring rules. Scenario team scores apply a per-player delta on top of the real matchup scores, so the baseline reproduces every actual result exactly.

Scoring Sensitivity — What-If Scenarios

Each scenario changes one part of the scoreboard and re-scores every team-week. Games flipped = regular-season matchups whose winner changes; records changed = teams whose season W-L shifts; titles changed = championships that change hands (same bracket, re-scored final).
