The spread is political . It is the attempt to show everybody's "predictions", no matter the quality, to avoid people with big fast computers ("the rich") from dominating the picture. In other words, good models with thousands of iterations along with crappy models with arbitrary assumptions and one run. This comes from the open source nature of...
