Resolution vs. Optimization
See how optimization moves along the Q2-Q3 diagonal (trading off dimensions) while resolution makes an architectural jump to Q4.
How to Use
- Apply Optimization: animates the blue dot moving along the diagonal — improving on one dimension while degrading the other, until stalling in the Optimization Trap Zone.
- Apply Resolution: shows the redesign pause and then the architectural jump to the Q4 zone.
- Compare Paths: shows both trajectories simultaneously for direct comparison.
- Reset clears the animation.
Learning Objective
Distinguish (Bloom L4) between optimization and resolution by observing their quadrant trajectories; evaluate (L5) whether a proposed improvement constitutes genuine Q4 progress or movement within an existing trade-off.
