Controls how the timing-driven placer estimates delays.

* ``simple`` The placement delay estimator is built from the router lookahead. This is more CPU-efficient and still as accurate as the ``delta` model.
* ``simple`` The placement delay estimator is built from the router lookahead. This takes less CPU time to build and it and still as accurate as the ``delta` model.
