(only including downstream effects of your policy)
I’m not sure I know what you mean by this, but if you mean causal effects, no, it considers all pasts, and all timelines.
(A reader might balk, “but that’s computationally infeasible”, but we’re talking about mathematic idealizations, the mathematical idealization of CDT is also computationally infeasible. Once we’re talking about serious engineering projects to make implementable approximations of these things, you don’t know what’s going to be feasible.)
