We were asking
Does the state reorganize its causal response geometry as each organism approaches its own visible transition?

The Geometry Turns — A Developmental Basin Atlas
Across organism-relative ages, whole-over-parts organization rose toward the morphological transition, preferred perturbations rotated away from ordinary predictability, and macroscopic identity became more canalized.
archiveevent-aligned exploratory atlas
This experiment found
The atlas shows a coordinated turn in information, intervention ranking, and developmental canalization, although the alignment was descriptive rather than a direct test of causation.
That sent us to
Can the turn be found prospectively in untouched states and then challenged with fixed interventions?
