/**
 * NCAAW Tournament Bracket Simulator
 *
 * Monte Carlo simulation of the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament (64-team bracket).
 * Win probability is derived from Barttorvik Barthag ratings using the Log5 formula.
 *
 * Algorithm:
 *   1. Load the bracket scoring event and all playoff matches from DB
 *      (6 rounds: R64, R32, S16, E8, FF, Final — 63 total matches)
 *   2. Load participant names from DB; look up Barthag rating by name
 *      from the hardcoded BARTHAG_RATINGS map (updated each season)
 *   3. Per-match win probability = Log5: A*(1-B) / (A*(1-B) + B*(1-A))
 *      (Barthag is on a 0–1 scale: probability of beating an average D-I opponent)
 *   4. Simulate 50,000 tournaments, honoring completed match results
 *   5. Track placements only for point-scoring rounds:
 *        - Champion (1st)
 *        - Finalist (2nd)
 *        - Final Four losers (3rd/4th) — 2 per sim
 *        - Elite Eight losers (5th–8th) — 4 per sim
 *      R64 / R32 / S16 exits score 0 points → not tracked
 *
 * Probability output (8 slots — same SimulationProbabilities type as NCAAM/UCL):
 *   probFirst         = champion / N
 *   probSecond        = finalist / N
 *   probThird/Fourth  = ffLoser  / (2 * N)   — 2 FF losers per sim
 *   probFifth–Eighth  = e8Loser  / (4 * N)   — 4 E8 losers per sim
 *   All pre-E8 exits                          → 0 (no points scored)
 *
 * Column sums are guaranteed to equal 1.0 by construction (same invariant as NCAAM).
 *
 * Barthag ratings are hardcoded in BARTHAG_RATINGS below (2025-26 season).
 * Source: barttorvik.com/ncaaw — update each season before running simulations.
 * Keys are lowercase, whitespace-normalized team names.
 * Unknown teams fall back to BARTHAG_FALLBACK = 0.5 (average D-I strength).
 *
 * Win probability formula — Log5 (Bill James):
 *   P(A beats B) = A*(1−B) / (A*(1−B) + B*(1−A))
 *   Property: barthagWinProbability(x, 0.5) === x  (definition of Barthag)
 *   Property: barthagWinProbability(A, B) + barthagWinProbability(B, A) === 1
