The property required for well-defined fragility domains—external shocks must have finite magnitude and duration. Shock boundedness ensures that the Δ-operator can be designed to handle the range of fragility cycles the system will actually face.
A pandemic is shock-bounded (finite duration, measurable magnitude) and can be designed for. An infinite or unbounded shock would make Δ-design impossible.
