We were asking
Does a hidden direction have a fixed meaning, or is its effect addressed to the developmental state that receives it?
Flow Lenia / hidden-state
The Body Changes Language
At q32, the body expanded specifically under its q32-derived hidden direction, while at q48 the response broadened across direction ages and moved into connected-body topology.

This experiment found
The response was age-matched at q32 and qualitatively different at q48, which makes the instruction-body pairing part of the causal state.
That sent us to
Can swapping hidden ages between q32 and q48 determine whether the decoder lives in the body or the transplanted composition?
