Stable Explanation and Displayed-Placement Counterfactuals
Issue #76 supersedes the original decision-trace and historical-counterfactual requirements of this ADR. Calculations no longer capture, retain or deliver decision history, and the UI has no trace explorer, replay, historical candidate statuses or balance-attempt lists.
VacOptimizer exposes one client-side calculation context with an immutable submitted configuration. Its outcome is independent from the stable explanation, which describes the final displayed plan and remains useful for complete and valid incumbent plans.
Counterfactual date analysis tests a displayed placement over every date of the submitted half-open horizon. It uses the captured configuration and final-state snapshot, releases only that placement, preserves its entitlement, leave type and rule provenance, and fixes unrelated placements. Earned-entitlement chronology and all obligations still apply. The result is explicitly hypothetical and never mutates the displayed plan. Historical decisions are not selectable analysis baselines.
The public outcome is delivered as soon as planning work finishes. Explanation delivery failures cannot replace it. Counterfactual work is cancelled or ignored when its calculation identity is stale. Search breadth, allocation previews, user priorities, deterministic selection and ADR 0006's cancellation, liveness and technical-budget contracts remain unchanged. Workers finish after required outcome and explanation delivery without acknowledgement queues.
