The formula is verified. Causal interpretation still requires a defensible study design, comparison and assumptions.
Keep the same place, observation period, definitions, units and source versions.
Analysis inputs. Treatment Measured slope displacement before [mm]; Treatment Measured slope displacement after [mm]; Comparison Measured slope displacement before [mm]; Comparison Measured slope displacement after [mm]; Study design and comparability evidence; Outcome definition, method and reference basis
Other required evidence. Baseline movement; post-work movement; rainfall; controls; maintenance; observation dates.

The arithmetic alone does not establish causation. Design, parallel trends, confounding, attrition, uncertainty and adverse effects need appropriate evidence.
Proposed checking role. Geotechnical/landslide specialist and authorized technical reviewer.
After the action. Verified outcomes, costs, distributional effects and evidence strength.
