Two savings numbers — both matter:
• vs 2025 Baseline (total, −$1.02M) = the headline EBITDA number Myles anchors on. But most of it (−$0.93M) is already captured by tighter 2026 budgets — it happens whether or not the plan changes.
• vs Current Program (incremental, −$0.09M) = what changing the plan actually buys on top of doing nothing. This is the real test: if it's small or negative, the plan change isn't worth the morale hit.
Sunk cost: Jan–Apr already paid → only 8/12 of any 2026 savings is still capturable; full run-rate lands 2027+.
