Description: Implements policy evaluation primitives from HM Treasury
    Magenta Book guidance (HM Treasury, 2020): theory of change and
    log-frame construction, evaluation planning and stakeholder mapping,
    power and minimum-detectable-effect calculations for randomised
    designs (including cluster and stepped-wedge designs following
    'Hussey' and 'Hughes' (2007) <doi:10.1016/j.cct.2006.05.007> and
    'Hemming' et al. (2015) <doi:10.1136/bmj.h391>), Maryland Scientific
    Methods Scale ratings, structured confidence ratings, light-weight
    difference-in-differences and interrupted-time-series estimators
    ('Bernal' et al. (2017) <doi:10.1093/ije/dyw098>) with cluster-robust
    standard errors ('Cameron' and 'Miller' (2015) <doi:10.3368/jhr.50.2.317>),
    pre-treatment balance checks ('Stuart' (2010) <doi:10.1214/09-STS313>),
    and cost-effectiveness analysis (cost per outcome, incremental
    cost-effectiveness ratio, acceptability curves, incremental net
    benefit, quality-adjusted and disability-adjusted life years).
    Designed as the evaluation companion to the appraisal package
    'greenbook'. Bundled rubric and reference tables carry vintage
    metadata for reproducibility.
