The experiment is not entirely correct.
As I know, minefields work with minimal necessary warp instead of actual warp.
So, at a distance of less than 49 (or 50) ly, W7 is minimal necessary warp, 1 above safe, so 99% chance of missing. 10 radius field, so 20ly travel, chance to hit = 1 - (.99**20) = 0.1821
At a distance of less than 64 (or 65) ly, W8 is minimal necessary warp, 2 above safe, so 98% chance of missing. 10 radius field, so 20ly travel, chance to hit = 1 - (.98**20) = 0.3324

Links to scenario setups is invalid: xy file is missing, you can not do anything without it.
