Remove KOTL vignette — peace-fwcp is the canonical worked example#50
Merged
Conversation
The peace-fwcp vignette already showcases the full pipeline (regional + per-ecoregion + day-night asymmetry + interpretation) on a more interesting AOI. KOTL was the original single-watershed example but has been superseded; keeping it costs ~60 s of pkgdown CI time per push and adds /vsicurl/ flake surface that the precompute work in #45 intentionally removed for peace-fwcp. Underlying KOTL data assets stay in inst/extdata/ — README quick-start still uses example_aoi_kotl.gpkg as a small AOI demo. Once snowpack variables land (#48), the plan is to either evolve peace-fwcp to absorb the snow story or re-purpose a single-watershed vignette around the snow-fed hydrology narrative. Both options discussed in #49. Relates to #49

Summary
Removes
vignettes/climate-departure.Rmd(the KOTL vignette) so pkgdown CI stays fast and the package's worked example stays focused onpeace-fwcp, which now demonstrates the full pipeline at a higher fidelity.peace-fwcpalready covers everything KOTL did:peace-fwcpmakes the same scientific point on its own)Keeping KOTL costs ~60 s per pkgdown CI push (it still renders live from S3 — wasn't precomputed in #45) and reintroduces the
/vsicurl/flake surface that #45 intentionally removed forpeace-fwcp.Why now
User-driven decision: "we are showcasing the package well with the 1 vignette currently and the kotl is not as sweet — so functions to distract." The two-vignette state was useful while iterating; one is enough now.
What stays
inst/extdata/example_aoi_kotl.gpkg,context_kotl.gpkg,context_kotl_towns.gpkg— the KOTL polygon assets remain in the package because the README quick-start uses them as a small example AOI.data-raw/example_aoi_kotl.R,data-raw/example_context_kotl.R— generators stay so the bundled assets remain reproducible.Future direction
Captured in #49: once snow-pack variables land (#48), the plan is to either evolve
peace-fwcpto absorb the snow story, or re-purpose a single-watershed vignette around snow-fed hydrology. Decision deferred until #48 ships.Test plan
