//! Nearest-car dispatch — assigns each call to the closest idle elevator.

/// Scores `(car, stop)` by absolute distance between the car and the stop.
///
/// Paired with the Hungarian assignment in the dispatch system, this
/// yields the globally minimum-total-distance matching across the group
/// — no two cars can be sent to the same hall call.
