Every hit price gains one factor, PDeviation(Evasion, Tracking): how far the target can
and does move off the line of fire within SolutionWindow (0.75 s). Capability is Reach, an
eight-face closed form over the ship's ManoeuvreEnvelope (summed from what each live
thruster and aether drive reports with its own Execute arithmetic, read live: a thruster's
Thrust property is stale until it fires, which is why the Djinni moved 1.6 times its stats,
M25). Behaviour is ManoeuvreTrack, observed once per Entity.Update from the measured
acceleration; a steady burn, coasting and a dither much faster than the window do not
evade, and sideways speed alone does not (ruling evasion-speed). The commit price adds the
term at any flight time, so an instant weapon feels a jinking target. Forecast owns the
term for HitProbability and Inspect, which gain Evasion and PEvasion.
