It's still not ideal for 100% of situations, but at least it's something.

Elbow method for marginal difference (SS_k - SS_k-1) may be nice to have as well, though it probably requires additional discussion/research/review, e.g. https://www.ee.columbia.edu/~dpwe/papers/PhamDN05-kmeans.pdf page 109

Hello @PathosEthosLogos Thank you for this suggestion!

I will get around to doing some more {tidyclust} development, hopefully in the next couple of months, and will see if we can add this then.
