Single-Pass Processing / Global Optimization
Kind: tension
Record: tension:global-optimization-single-pass-processing
Canonical: Schema
"single-pass-processing" (execution-core layer) is traded against "Global Optimization" (execution-core layer) — a principle cannot be scope-separated from a quality, metric, or cost it competes with; resolve by measuring "Global Optimization" and choosing an explicit operating point.
