Meaning, it won't be little to no tax on accessing the funds
You have to pay income tax when you draw down those pre-tax accounts whether before or after 59 1/2. It's primarily a way to avoid the 10% penalty. It's feasible to get taxes down to a minimum using standard deduction if only drawing down $35000. You could augment that with funds from a taxable brockerage and take advantage of zero long term capital gains up to ~$78k in taxable income married filing joint.

Mine says I cover 535 days per year. That's why I have been a slacker the last 12 years.

In these spending calculations, I am always perplexed by the expected/assumed $$ needs in retirement.
If I have downsized my home and it’s paid off.
If I have reliable cheap transportation.
If I am not buying work clothes and going out to lunch everyday.
If I have raised my children to be independent financially.
If my parents have passed away and no longer need my help.
What are these huge expenses that I need money for?
Healthcare yes. Huge expense.
And?
I am not arguing with anyone. I just don’t understand why I will need >75% of my current income to survive.

me either
my expenses will be healthcare and travel.
if I do the deal right I should be able to transfer ownership of my company in exchange for a yearly payout and health insurance coverage. If I can do that then I’m not sure what all my big expenses are going to be
we will see

How close are you to 365 “freedom days”?
My situation is complicated.
Strictly by the calculator, I'm 10% of the way to 365. In 7 years, I won't even be to 90 days (25%).
2 years after that, it shoots up to 365+.
Strictly by the calculator.

Because if you've worked, sometimes 2 and 3 jobs, and busted your arse for 30+ years, when you stop working you spend your time on things that don't pay.
And some of you folks have expensive hobbies. Guns, guitars, cars, travel, all that adds up.
Better safe than sorry. Of course, you could move to a crackerbox, live on beans and rice and never do anything in retirement. That's a plan...
(Plus inflation, baws - that used to be a thing and could be again - hope for the best, plan for the worst.)

I always use a real rate of return to keep it in (this year’s) dollars
