MMP.18:6 - Bias-Annotation
Coupling is often presented through physical simulations, which can suggest that every interface carries a conserved flow. Statistical components instead require coherent shared distributions and dependence. Both cases need an explicit relation between components; the relation’s governing property comes from the modeled quantity.
The examples use small equations with known solutions. A large coupled formulation may be well defined but expensive to compute, or locally accurate but poor for the receiving use. Preserve that distinction when choosing a simpler interface or component.
