Why overshoot matters
In safety-critical control, crossing a bound even briefly can cause irreversible damage (mechanical limits, thermal excursions, unsafe trajectories). The goal is often bounded response rather than best average performance.
Where recursive amplification appears
- Adaptive controllers updating gains online
- State estimation feeding into action selection (tight coupling)
- Optimization-in-the-loop systems with receding horizons

Use the demo step signal and compare EMA vs GSRF to build intuition for overshoot and boundedness.
