Landing page captured for the 2026-09-23 issue.

Worth noticing: Its chart treats the status quo as a baseline and leaves potential harm visible below it.

Field notes

The site's chart places the status quo on a baseline, with possible benefits above it and harms below. Its explanation distinguishes a spreading range of futures from a single-point forecast, and says pale green is not a probability claim. The methodology section cites a 1996 Bank of England inflation chart, Britton, Fisher & Whitley (1998), and scenario-planning work by Pierre Wack and Peter Schwartz.
