subscript

Bj=(Ntokens,Nturns,Ntools,twall,Ccompute,kattempts).B_j=(N_{\mathrm{tokens}},N_{\mathrm{turns}},N_{\mathrm{tools}},t_{\mathrm{wall}},C_{\mathrm{compute}},k_{\mathrm{attempts}}).
subscript

What this part means

The lower label selects a particular version, component, or indexed member of the quantity. For example, x₀ and xₜ can be values at different positions.

Its job in the formula

A subscript distinguishes a version, component, step, or member of a quantity. It does not automatically mean multiplication.

The passage around this formula

For system j , report a resource vector Bj=(Ntokens,Nturns,Ntools,twall,Ccompute,kattempts)B_j=(N_{\mathrm{tokens}},N_{\mathrm{turns}},N_{\mathrm{tools}},t_{\mathrm{wall}},C_{\mathrm{compute}},k_{\mathrm{attempts}}). A resolution curve p(B) is more informative than one point. It reveals marginal returns: whether twice the budget buys substantial success, tiny gains, or merely longer trajectories. It also lets organizations choose configurations on a cost-quality frontier.
