public class MultipleBaselinesRequireSubsetException extends AnalysisException
Raised when a factor carries more than one explicitly marked baseline and the analysis was not configured with a subset factor.

More than one baseline on a factor is legitimate — a dataset holding two experiments has a reference level per experiment — but it means the factor cannot be analyzed as a single contrast: there is no one level the others are measured against. Such a design has to be split with a subset factor, and running it whole would silently pick whichever baseline came first in iteration order and report a result nobody could interpret.
