It seems like there's some potential here, but not quite nailed yet.

I'd already seen cost model numbers like these before, but this interactive visualization still seemed to obscure the information as I was taking a first look.

I wonder whether it would be more useful adapted to a visualization/calculator for specific numbers, maybe for multiple operations in an algorithm, and the alternatives for implementing each? (And the click-to-scale is for selecting N for each operation, and maybe somehow constants?)
