Research direction

Start by locating the check_models output or documentation that describes ncv as an alias for linearity. Clarify how ncv differs from linearity and whether it combines linearity with homogeneity; done means the explanation accurately describes ncv without calling it an alias for linearity.

Description

Consistency :green_apple: :apple: Docs :books:

ncv is not an "alias" for linearity, since it does something different. I think it's an alias for linearity plus homogeneity maybe? Could this be clarified?
