Create makes a new Hypothesis from the inputs below. It is inherited: every Noun has get, list, create, update and delete.

`metric`	Metric		The Metric that settles it.
`threshold`	`string`		The Metric value that settles it.

The key is valid, but its scopes do not allow this operation.	`forbidden`	Use a key whose scopes cover the operation, or ask an owner of the namespace to grant them.	Hypothesis.create

When it waits

Gate	Default
Decision class	Low: two-way, nothing at stake
Delay window	None: it runs once review passes.
Limit	The call Limit of the Permission it runs under.
