Six Ways to Compute 99%

Availability monitoring — constructs, computability, and the denominator that doubled overnight.

Sixteen sites, one guarantee, six structurally different definitions of it. Coefficients left to be mutually agreed and never populated. Six sites showing a forty-nine point excursion below guarantee with no physical event behind it. The contractual half and the computational half, with the arithmetic for both, and computability returned as a per-site position rather than a score.
