It is very seldom that such a cutoff is real and validates in another
dataset. As described so well in Steyerberg's book Clinical Prediction
Modeling there are many good ways to present models to non-statisticians.
Nomograms and calibration curves with histograms of predicted probabilities
are two good ones.
There is a reason that the speedometer in your car doesn't just read "slow"
and "fast".
