Description: Builds matched nulls for cluster-count claims: synthetic twins of a
    dataset that preserve every marginal distribution and the full correlation
    matrix while containing no cluster structure by construction. A reported
    number of clusters or "types" can then be tested against what the data's own
    margins and covariance already produce, using any clustering pipeline. A
    t-copula option adds tail dependence to the null, so that an apparent excess
    of clusters can be checked against a heavier-tailed alternative before it is
    read as evidence of types. Implements the matched-null procedure of Meng
    (2026) "Types Without Taxa" <doi:10.17605/OSF.IO/2EKCG>.
