Value kicks in immediately which isn't what happens in reality #3

The costs of the Legacy App work to create Containerized Apps should be shown happening before the values start.

Or in other words, it's not realistic to count the value of the conversion work before that stage of the work is done. The current graphs are telling a too optimistic story. They should reflect the cost of conversion happening first, then the portfolio can realize the benefits of the conversions after each is done.

A fair assumption we can make is that each conversion takes 6 months, which will give us a more traditional looking J-curve.
