ESPHome vs surveycore

surveycore is the estimation engine of a two-package survey stack, handling design objects and variance estimation while surveytidy supplies the dplyr verbs on top. The June release marks it 1.0.0 and states the API is complete and stable across Taylor series linearization, replicate weights, two-phase and non-probability designs, with means, totals, frequencies, quantiles, ratios, correlations, regression, t-tests, ANOVA and effective sample size all in place.

The last months before 1.0.0 were spent making the awkward designs behave like the ordinary ones. Non-probability designs gained jackknife replicate schemes and got their bootstrap repweights routed through the replicate-weight variance estimator in survey_glm(), matching every other estimation function. The survey_collection abstraction — several surveys treated as one pseudo-data-frame — was tightened rather than extended: divergent grouping across members now errors instead of stitching a patchwork with bind_rows(), and the missing-variable argument was renamed and given a stored default on the collection itself. A documentation audit before 1.0.0 turned up six dispatch and print bugs and corrections across forty-plus files, which is the kind of thing that surfaces when an API is being frozen rather than extended.

A declared-stable API means the next releases should be additive or corrective rather than breaking, and the pre-1.0.0 pattern of breaking renames should stop. The tight version pinning between the two packages means surveytidy releases will keep following surveycore's.
