you’ll have to change one variable at a time and take note of the results, like any good scientist would.
In the shower control problem, this is a satisficing approach. Any good scientist, however, ought to know that changing one variable at a time is incredibly wasteful relative to fractional factorial experimental designs, which are themselves not optimal designs in general.
Well done!
A nitpick:
