Determinism / Runtime Adaptivity
Kind: tension
Record: tension:determinism-runtime-adaptivity
Canonical: Schema
"determinism" (computation-core layer) is traded against "Runtime Adaptivity" (computation-core layer) — a principle cannot be scope-separated from a quality, metric, or cost it competes with; resolve by measuring "Runtime Adaptivity" and choosing an explicit operating point.
