You need a cohort rule, pricing logic, or service categories that differ substantially from the structure you provide.
You need operational schedules beyond model costs, payment, CAPEX, debt and reporting structure.
You need reporting or financial structures that require a different model.
The indicator is the starting point for planning, not a guarantee of performance.
