Auto-Scaling / Fixed Capacity
Kind: tension
Record: tension:auto-scaling-fixed-capacity
Canonical: Schema
"auto-scaling" (correctness-core layer) is traded against "Fixed Capacity" (correctness-core layer) — a principle cannot be scope-separated from a quality, metric, or cost it competes with; resolve by measuring "Fixed Capacity" and choosing an explicit operating point.
