Velocity without capacity is fantasy

Teams overcommit when they plan against calendar days instead of net hours. Ceremonies, PTO, and support load eat the same bucket as story delivery.

A focus factor below 100% acknowledges reality — context switches, incidents, and unclear specs happen every sprint.

Use net person-hours as input to forecasting, not as a weapon. The goal is predictable delivery, not squeezing the last hour.
