probability · 71% confidence · 14 days

A Taipei explosion injured 13 people; cause remains under investigation. Taiwan's national security apparatus typically moves fast on industrial accidents (rule out terrorism) or confirms deliberate attack. Historical base rate for investigation closure on industrial incidents is ~60–70% within 2 weeks. Taiwan has strong forensic capacity and political incentive to rule out sabotage quickly if accidental. Confidence reflects standard investigation timelines and Taiwan's institutional speed.
