Walk one run: what each stage constrains

A transient electro-thermal measurement proceeds in six stages, and each one exists to quantify, constrain or correct a specific systematic under the validated model — not to make it disappear. Step through the sequence and watch how much of the budget is still open; the second slider sets how demanding the specimen is, which changes how much each stage can close.

Illustrative workflow schematic. Stage weights are teaching values showing why each step exists; real uncertainty budgets are specimen-specific, and which steps a given instrument automates is a documentation question rather than an inference from the method literature.
