Our new paper is out 🎉 – briefly put, we show that the effect of algorithmic recommendation, at least on music streaming platforms, may look very different depending on how it's being measured, be it in terms of measure scale (session-level vs. aggregate) or measure type (discrete vs. continuous)

A "2-tuple" would perhaps unambiguously convey this too but sounds pedantic/overkill.
Paris is... relaxingly simple! First time in a decade+ where I'm not commuting between the two cities at that time of the year. A dyadic relation still!
Oops, missed the emphasis on non-existence! Mathematically "ordered pair" sounds great, as others said, though it feels "dyad" initially meant 'ordered' by default too (just like "triad" and like in maths) while covering non-existence (as in "null dyad").
"arcs" perhaps?
