Output

  1. One row per software tool, including tools with no current analyst records.
  2. Columns: software_name, analyst_count, average_years_used, and familiarity_band.
  3. Classify averages as No reported use, Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced; sort by analyst count descending, average years descending with missing values last, then software name ascending.
