4、for experiments,not data centers.At only 50 qubits,more than 1/3 of total cooling power used on cryogenic stages40%of the total load is irreducible,i.e.,driven by physics,not by engineering choices,modality,or designEvery joint,pump,and material choice becomes a reliability risk.The gap between what
