Resilience Conflates Two Things

The claim

'Resilience' conflates resistance to disturbance with speed of recovery, two properties that trade against each other.

01Mechanism

A system can resist change or return quickly, rarely both.

02Prediction

Measures should anti-correlate across systems.

03Refutation

A single dimension would remove the conflation.
