ELI5 — The Vibe Check
Bus factor = 1 means one person leaving (or getting hit by a bus) destroys the project. They're the only one who knows how the payment system works. They wrote it three years ago without docs, and they're the only one who can maintain it. Bus factor is 'how much would it hurt if this person left?' High bus factor = healthy team knowledge sharing.
