//! Relative System Response (RSR) dispatch — a composite additive
//! cost stack.
//!
//! Inspired by the Otis patent lineage (Bittar US5024295A, US5146053A)
//! and the Barney–dos Santos CGC framework. Unlike those proprietary
//! systems, this implementation is an educational model, not a
//! faithful reproduction of any vendor's scoring.
//!
//! Shape: `rank = eta_weight · travel_time + Σ penalties − Σ bonuses`.
//! All terms are additive scalars, so they compose cleanly with the
//! library's Kuhn–Munkres assignment. Defaults are tuned so the stack
//! reduces to the nearest-car baseline when every weight is zero.
//!
//! What this deliberately leaves out: online weight tuning, fuzzy
//! inference, and stickiness state. Those belong above the trait, not
//! inside a strategy.
