Work out why a cloning experiment failed: no colonies, every clone empty vector, or no PCR band. Takes your design (method, parts, enzymes, primers, host methylation state) plus what you actually observed (colony counts on the plate and on each control, screening tally, band sizes, whether the ladder ran) and returns causes ranked by evidence — each with the deterministic fact from the design or the observation that implicates it, the cheapest observation that would separate it from the next candidate, and the next experiment. Causes the observations eliminate are reported as eliminated, naming the observation that did it; causes the design makes impossible are not listed. No probability is computed anywhere — the ordering is of evidence, not of likelihood, and `ranking.evidenceBased` says so when the inputs separate nothing.
