Say the selection order out loud, because the dashboard shows different numbers in a moment: candidates were chosen on the 2023 tune partition, where logistic led 0.282 to 0.274. The 2024 partition exists to fit Platt scaling, so selecting on it would be circular — that is why the dashboard cards carry a calibration-fit scope strip. 2025 was then opened once and confirmed the choice.

The deciles rise monotonically and sit close to the line across the whole range — the lowest decile is predicted 4.7 percent and observes 4.0 percent, the highest is predicted 34.8 percent and observes 31.2 percent. That top decile is the same 31.2 percent from the lift line on the comparison slide. This is what the Brier score of 0.1011 summarizes in one number.
