The atlas

Every part, in every setting, pooled.

What each part did in every notebook that measured it, pooled into one estimate per setting. A result counts once it holds twice: replicated means two notebooks found the same clear effect and none found the opposite.

101 parts in 4 settings: 3 replicated, 0 where notebooks disagree, 91 measured clearly once. How the method checks itself: the method card.
