Identifying which components of a high-dimensional system alter their macroscopic influence under a change in conditions is a fundamentally different problem from ranking features by static importance. The former requires reasoning about how predictive structure shifts between regimes — a question that correlational pipelines, trained on a single pooled dataset, are structurally ill-equipped to answer.
