Bot feature request

For limited cube rollouts, I don't think the graph would give you any additional information. The equity estimate and confidence interval tell you everything there is to know. But there might be a few reasons to want the feature anyway:

  1. It gives you something to look at while you're waiting for the rollout to finish.

  2. If there is a bug in the rollout software, the graph might reveal it.

  3. The graph might give you an intuitive feel for how variable the result is. (It would be interesting have the confidence interval plotted too.)

For unlimited cube rollouts, there is an additional reason:

  1. If the cube gets really high in one trial, the high cube would make a big swing in the equity and you'd be able to see that on the graph. In that case, you might want to redo the rollout or extend the number of trials.
