Description

The durations for each subpart in this insight are what was observed, not what was simulated. So the LCP reported by Lighthouse will be larger than the subparts.

It's not feasible for us to accurately simulate the subpart durations. So I think we should change the column label to "Duration (observed)" and explain a bit in the description.
