Does the same controllable information direction retain the same causal meaning throughout development?
The local score could be separated at every tested age, while its relationship to independent future breadth moved from constrictive before the transition to expansive around and after it.
Does the same controllable information direction retain the same causal meaning throughout development?
It does not; the score remains steerable while its alignment with future narrowing changes across age, with most checkpoints fixed before their outcomes were seen.
Can a fresh cohort confirm the age-dependent alignment and separate it from action re-indexing?
