Benefit architecture

Benefit Overlap Matrix

Every cell counts the propositions that claim both territories, and the grid is mirrored so a pair reads the same in either direction. White is literal white space — an unbuilt combination. The darker the green, the more crowded and fused the territory pair already is. The outlined diagonal counts pure specialists that claim that territory and nothing else.
