Joint Modeling for Stochastic Interventions

When an intervention variable is sampled from a distribution rather than fixed to a point, train a predictor on the full joint distribution instead of replacing intervention with conditioning on its realized value. This prevents selection bias caused by conditioning on mediators or downstream observations that reveal information about the random intervention.
