Is the "Combined" factoring probability actually wrong on mersenne.ca?

I think what you're saying is that my simplified pseudocode above is correct, but please either confirm that it is, or provide a correction if it isn't.

Yes AFAIK the new formula is correct.

fancySum(a, b) = a + b * (1 - a) == a + b - a * b

I have adjusted the combined-probability calculation as described.

However, the data on a few exponents haven't been corrected. https://www.mersenne.ca/exponent/82745363 and https://www.mersenne.ca/exponent/108071849, for instance. Does it take a long time? But I've noticed that even exponents as big as 9G (say, https://www.mersenne.ca/exponent/9040030253) have been corrected.

The data is all corrected, but if you've looked at an exponent page recently you're probably seeing a cached version -- use Shift+F5 to force a browser refresh and you should see the new numbers.

I see. Sorry for my ignorance.
