Buildability
So, what does it mean for something to be buildable in a noisy construction environment?
Broadly: A phenotype is buildable if it can result from an embryogenic process that is subject to the constraints of its environment at every stage of development.
Narrowly: A structure is buildable if it can be assembled by a builder (interpreting a linear assembly plan) subject to noisy physics at every step of assembly.
