Slot: cells

What this contrast compared: one entry per level of a model term that entered it, each with the side it sat on. The only place direction lives.

Every cell names its term, so the axis of a comparison is explicit. Two cells naming one term compare levels within that factor; cells naming different terms compare across them. A condition contrast, a cohort comparison, a pre-post change, a crossover comparison of arms and a region-by-condition dissociation all take this one form, and what distinguishes them is what the named term's levels range over, which FactorLevel states on the model.

Required and non-empty. A one-sample test is one signed cell: a lone positive cell tests that coefficient against zero, which is what the unmodelled implicit baseline is, and the sign distinguishes activation from deactivation. A map with no inferential test at all is not an Analysis.
