Purpose

Apply a controlled change to an assumption, factor, component, parameter, or condition and record the response.

Input contract

required: [baseline_artifact, perturbation_target, perturbation_axis, response_metric]
optional: [variation_range, removal_mode, factor_list, uncertainty_model]
constraints: [change one declared target or axis at a time unless the caller explicitly supplies an interaction design; preserve baseline comparability]
