Description: Identifies candidate item sets through threshold-driven
        iterative removal searches in exploratory factor analysis.
        Provides a no-removal baseline, numerical diagnostics, factor
        reliability, holdout evaluation, and bootstrap search stability
        to support transparent screening and documented content review
        rather than automatic measurement decisions. The loading
        criteria are based on best practices and established heuristics
        (e.g., Costello & Osborne (2005) <doi:10.7275/jyj1-4868>,
        Howard (2016) <doi:10.1080/10447318.2015.1087664>). Includes
        flexible thresholds for factor loadings (min_loading) and
        cross-loading differences (loading_diff).
