      abstract     = {Extrapolations of sensitivity to new interactions and
                      standard model parameters critically inform the programme at
                      the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and potential future
                      collider cases. To this end, statistical considerations
                      based on inclusive quantities and established analysis
                      strategies typically give rise to a sensitivity scaling with
                      the square root of the luminosity, $\sqrt{L}$. This suggests
                      only a mild sensitivity improvement for LHC's
                      high-luminosity phase, compared to the collected data up to
                      the year 2025. We discuss representative analyses in top
                      quark, Higgs boson and electroweak gauge boson phenomenology
                      and provide clear evidence that the assumption that the
                      sensitivity in searches and measurement scales only with
                      $\sqrt{L}$ at the High-Luminosity LHC is overly conservative
                      at best, and unrealistic in practice. As kinematic coverage
                      enables more targeted search strategies with sufficient
                      statistical sensitivity, employing a multitude of features
                      in data dispels the scaling based on more inclusive
                      selections.},
