Towards a Leftovers Succession Standard

Distributions from a National Household Survey

A paper from the School of Emergent Priorities surveys 1,614 households nationally to characterise the self-appointed leftovers arbiter's decision confidence, override rate, and role tenure as population-level distributions, finding tenure bimodal in family households and confidence and override rate unmoved by a printed use-by guide. The School reads the tenure distribution's short-cycle mode as an early-warning signal and sets a model household rotation from its national median.
