Put it in an inline function and include commends on why you chose these
numbers. As a statistician I probably want to play around with this
in a few years.

But if you want to compute a time period, you have to normalize the value.
Otherwise you can not compare UT and HT.

Yes, true. We need more values for better estimation. Let's say each
Inn stores
values from the last 20 customers. If less than 3 globs differ much
from the median
their values are flattened or rejected. If we additionally use the
distance and speed
of those globs who already signed up for a meal, we should adjust to a
group of long
distance travelers faster. We can estimate AT before the actual arrival.

I think so.
Adjusting Inns is too distracting right now for the player in my opinion.
