A ceiling is a boundary in the rules, not evidence about the common result.
What is happening
Marketing highlights maxima because they are vivid. Without probability and total exposure, the number cannot support a value claim.
Good analysis separates the visible cue from the underlying event. Identify what starts the event, what it costs, which states can persist, where the rules reset and what evidence describes the distribution.
Where judgement slips
People give more weight to large, recent and vividly animated outcomes. A game interface can intensify that bias by showing near-misses, progress markers or selected history. None of those cues changes what the next independent result owes.
One action
Read the distribution from ordinary outcomes upward.
Evidence hierarchy
A current help file or certified configuration can support a mechanical claim. Provider marketing can describe a feature but not its consumer value. A stream or personal session can demonstrate interface behaviour, not long-run return.
See the signal in context
Sweet Bonanza 1000 is mapped to this pattern. Each file preserves edition and source boundaries.
