Use this for "if I pay $200 a month, when is this paid off?" or "what happens if I only pay the minimum?". Returns how long a card takes to clear at a fixed monthly payment and the interest paid over that time. This is a cost question, not a reporting one: it does not change what the bureaus see, so use get_reported_snapshot or simulate_paydown for that. Requires the card's purchase APR; without it no timeline is returned, because the rate decides the answer. Calculates scenarios from supplied figures; does not make payments, change accounts, fetch external data, or retain tool inputs.
