When we have a good understanding of abstraction, it should also be straightforward to recognize when a distribution shift violates the abstraction. In particular, insofar as abstractions are basically deterministic constraints, we can see when the constraint is violated. And as long as we can detect it, it should be straightforward (though not necessarily easy) to handle it.
