How alt.qa uses it

We approximate this class’s behaviour (pacing and confirmation style) with vendor models under our own identity, and label every such column “behavioural approximation”.

Completion rates for this agent will be published from the Alt Benchmark with sample sizes and dates. We do not publish rankings from anecdotes.
