Load-Sensitive State vs. Fragility

Load sensitivity is often interpreted as fragility, but the two are not identical.

Fragility implies a general vulnerability across contexts.
It suggests that the system is easily harmed or damaged.

Load sensitivity is more specific.
The body may function well at baseline, yet destabilize when demands cross a narrow threshold.

When baseline is stable but tolerance is narrow, load sensitivity is the more accurate description.
