Tyler, when are you going to get a website set up for that backtester you've made? Those visualizations are just outstanding! At least make it public somehow.
Just a lowly ME with some Excel skills. It's on my radar, though. Patience!

My wife and I definitely include the emergency fund as part of PP cash holdings. I think people would be surprised if they add up all of the buckets of savings and life costs how easy it is to get close to 25% cash.
We use a spreadsheet we call a savings tracker which tracks all of the savings goals(electronics replacement to car repair, emergency fund to vacation).
