Where do players end up after they change the difficulty, and who keeps flip-flopping?

Looking at what difficulty people start on says little. What matters is where they settle, and whether they hop between settings without finding a fit. This entry shows how to read both from the log of setting changes.

Why this works

Where someone ends up says more than where they began, and how they got there says more still. Two sessions with the same start and end can differ: one was settled, the other kept switching because no level fit. Showing start-to-end pairs and the switching count separately shows both.

When not to use it

Do not use it when the difficulty is chosen once and fixed, or adapts by itself without the player's choice. There is no path to read. Ask instead how players did on the level they got, or compare outcomes between levels.
