## Other Examples

The existing `basque.csv` and `california_prop99.csv` support the
[panel case studies](../ablations/same-root-panel-cases.html); their study
descriptions and source references are on that page. `harman_holzinger.csv`
and `small_msq.csv` support [sparse factor rotations](../examples/sparse-rotations.html).
The staggered-adoption vignette uses seeded synthetic data, not an external CSV.

Benchmark measurements and host metadata are kept separately in
`../ablations/data/` and are regenerated by `benchmarks/scaling/run_grid.py`.
