The Forecast Error sensors replayed the model with the relay, electrical heat
and window history that actually followed, so they measured the model, not a
forecast anyone could have made. They are renamed Model Error (unique IDs
unchanged) and gain RMSE, effective sample count and a quality label; their
state stays unknown until there are at least 5 roughly independent spans.
A new Forecast Error sensor scores forecasts as published, with the plan and
assumptions of the moment they were made. A forecast is scored only when the
relay followed its plan; otherwise it is counted as counterfactual, not as
error. Statistics are saved with the model and dropped with a zone's
recalibration.
