We built 9 puzzles across a variety of total sizes and with piece numbers ranging from 9 to 2000. We laid out all the pieces flat, trying to be realistic by not paying much attention to how they were arranged and not spending time trying to get them closer together.

The results were the most incredible agreement between theory and data I've ever seen in over a decade of being a physicist. I think I gasped when I saw this plot. Without any fitting, our simple theory *very accurately* predicted the unassembled area of all these puzzles.
