  1. Each row shows a distinct sequence of workflow states (variant) and the count of orders following that path. Shorter paths (e.g., direct transitions from Ready to Completed) are more frequent under baseline probabilities. In the modified scenario, these shortcut paths are suppressed, and reliance on longer routes through Reserved and InProgress is increased.
