I might use "singular" to describe an event since you can't slice & dice those, but
I don't think there's much else I'd want to apply it to.
Scalar has the definition "a number possessing only sign and magnitude", since simulation
types also have strength and certainty neither word seems really appropriate to me.
Maybe we could make up a new word e.g.: "homogen" (from homogeneous) ?
