Research direction
Start by reading the existing make_cdf implementation and the surrounding code that creates incubation-period distributions. Clarify the expected wrapper interface and how diseases, strains, or covariants are represented before making changes. Done means other infection distributions can be created through the proposed wrapper, with behavior checked against the existing make_cdf approach.
