		Spatial Weight Construction for Archipelagic Geographies //
		Implements specialized K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) logic to
		address the unique challenges of spatial modeling in
		archipelagic environments. Standard contiguity models often
		leave significant portions of island nations (e.g., 20% of the
		Philippines) mathematically isolated. This package provides
		tools to ensure 100% network connectivity, neutralizing spatial
		bias and enabling robust econometric inference. Methodology
		follows Anselin (1988, ISBN:9024737354) and LeSage and Pace
		(2009) doi:10.1201/9781420064254.
