- Replace misleading PlaceboInTime reference with clear statement that only PreTreatmentPlaceboCheck and PriorSensitivity apply to staggered DiD - Add "If this check fails" subsection with concrete troubleshooting steps: inspect event-study plot for directional pre-trends, check pre-treatment window sparsity, revisit outcome model specification, and compare results under alternative priors Made-with: Cursor

Adds a sensitivity-analysis section to sc_pymc.ipynb that walks through the pipeline API (EstimateEffect -> SensitivityAnalysis -> GenerateReport) with PlaceboInTime as the SC default check, and documents the other SC-applicable checks (ConvexHullCheck, LeaveOneOut, PlaceboInSpace, PriorSensitivity) with interpretation guidance. Mirrors the structure introduced for Staggered DiD in #846 and links back to the central guide from #818. Includes a runnable pipeline cell and HTML report iframe so the walkthrough demonstrates an end-to-end placebo-in-time check with concrete pass/fail narrative and a five-step "if this check fails" troubleshooting block. Closes #789 Made-with: Cursor

Summary
Adds a focused sensitivity-check walkthrough for Staggered DiD to the
staggered_did_pymc.ipynbnotebook, addressing #791.This continues the work from #806 (by @arthurmello) and incorporates the review feedback:
