This tool is for learning and exploration only. The results come from simplified models. They do not show how real societies actually work.
Not predictions: We do not claim these results predict or represent real societies. The results are hypothetical. Treat them as thought experiments, not facts.
For learning and discussion: Use this tool to explore ideas and learn about different systems. Do not use it to make policies, do research without context, or make decisions that affect real people.
