FactDerivedAssumption
What this does NOT prove
- The play-type split describes where the points come from, not how well each one is defended.
- It portrays the 2025-26 season, already closed. It is not what comes next.
- There is no movement or touch data: what we do not measure does not appear, and is not replaced by something else.
