//! Gravity and repulsion between units: the pull the data shows one type to
//! have on another at a gap, and three readings off it.
//!
//! The field is `g_ab(d) = P(b at t+d | a at t) / P(b)` over gaps `1..=reach`,
//! above one a pull and below one a push. Each cell is smoothed by one pair on
//! either side, `(count + 1) / (expected + 1)`, so a pair never seen reads as a
//! push in proportion to how often chance would show it, and `-log2 g` is the
//! cell's potential in bits.
//!
//! - Strain: a unit's mean potential against each unit before it within the
//!   reach, in bits. High where what surrounds it pushes it away.
//! - Binding: the attraction across the cut before a unit, `log2 g` summed
//!   over the pairs that straddle the cut within [`BIND_REACH`], in bits. Low
//!   where the two sides hold together least.
//! - Geometry: each type's class in the space the field's significant cells
//!   arrange the types in, so types the data treats alike share a class.
//!
//! The field is learned from the input it is read on, at one of three grains:
//! the bytes, the significant tokens, or the supertokens. The reaches, the
//! binding window, the significance cut and the class count are the
//! configuration `examples/what_gravity_and_repulsion_carry` measured.
