tractability
Willingness to comply
Tractability is the quality of being easily managed, controlled, or worked with.
A tractable problem yields to available methods; a tractable person accepts guidance without resistance.
The word appears often in technical contexts—mathematics, computing, philosophy—where it distinguishes problems that can be solved from those that cannot: The tractability of the algorithm made it practical for real-world applications.
