Controlled Side Effects / Performance Optimization
Kind: tension
Record: tension:controlled-side-effects-performance-optimization
Canonical: Schema
"controlled-side-effects" (atomic-boundary layer) is traded against "Performance Optimization" (atomic-boundary layer) — a principle cannot be scope-separated from a quality, metric, or cost it competes with; resolve by measuring "Performance Optimization" and choosing an explicit operating point.
