The core principle addresses structural and temporal coupling within software architecture, defining these phenomena through the formal mechanism of data propagation across orchestration workflows and dependencies on specific implementation orders. This concept belongs to Computer Science under Software Design patterns and Architectural Coupling Theory, serving as a foundational rule for assessing system resilience and minimizing ripple effects during refactoring. It relates directly to broader disciplinary goals of maintainability by establishing that code fragility is quantified by the extent to which local changes force modifications in disparate, unrelated subsystems via shared state or execution sequence dependencies.
