1. You set Direction to Positive on a gross margin ratio node, reasoning "it's a KPI, so this must mean higher is better". What's wrong with that reasoning?

Nothing — Positive is correctDirection only applies to cost nodesA ratio has no favourable side — Direction here is a direction of valuation, and a margin isn't straightforwardly good-when-up like a revenue or cost lineMargin nodes cannot take a Direction setting

2. You press Propagate and the toast reads "Propagated 40 nodes — Skipped 6 (4 missing baseline, 2 in cycle)". What is true of a manually-entered KPI in that tree?

It was left untouched — only formula and expression-mode nodes are recomputedIt was counted among the 6 skippedIt was overwritten along with the formula nodesIt was converted into a formula node

3. A Calibrate run comes back with almost nothing marked Actionable, and most pairs blocked for missing data. What does that tell you about the tree?

Calibrate has failed and needs to be re-runThe tree should be rebuilt from scratchEvery relationship in the tree is wrongThe tree has plenty of structure but not yet enough history to statistically support most of it
