cost: Low-to-mid single-digit billions in R&D plus multi-billion capex for fermentation and cultivated-meat plant scale-up.

Friction (1 = unblocked · 0 = blocked)

Harm (1 = no harm · 0 = maximum harm)

Suffering reduction (1 = maximum reduction · 0 = no reduction)

The numerator in -suffering EV. Operator-scored expected reduction across each suffering layer. Without this, the tool only scores the costs of deploying; with it, leverage × friction × harm × suffering composes into a real −suffering signal.
