Theory 14/The rival is a different mechanism/Cardiology
Change Rate or Absolute Cold?
The claim
Cardiovascular events track the rate of temperature drop rather than absolute cold.
01The rival explanation
Cold days cause events, and rapid drops simply occur on cold days.
02What would tell them apart
Days reaching the same minimum at different rates separate them.
03Prediction
Events should be higher when the same minimum arrives faster.
04Refutation
If rate adds nothing at fixed minimum, the rival wins.
