"That was probably way more boring than you were hoping"

Heck no, that was really interesting. These odd, deep comments are one of the reasons I love Hacker News. I doubt I'll follow the project but enjoyed your description of it. I'd probably read a summary of the finished work, too, if it proved useful for real-world data or even amateur simulation builders.

Thank you! I think having it provide some useful real-world data in any domain would feel like the epitome of personal achievement for me with this. That is not my single-minded purpose with the project and it is interesting enough to just work on it for its own sake, but that long-shot hope does inform part of the overall direction.
