Cooking = start-button to bump. Waiting = fired to start-button. Start-btn = share of tickets where a prep start was logged; low values mean the split isn't reliable and the button is being skipped.

Soft-drink stations can show long times because sodas auto-fire and sit un-bumped - a measurement quirk, not slow service.
