How Does a Pool’s ‘Luck’ Metric Influence a Miner’s Decision to Join?

A pool's luck metric influences a miner's decision, especially for PPLNS pools, as a prolonged period of 'bad luck' (luck > 100%) can deter miners due to the reduced short-term payouts. Conversely, a 'good luck' streak (luck < 100%) can attract new miners seeking a temporary boost in earnings, even though luck is expected to regress to the mean.
