We were asking
When total dose cancels exactly, does the order of hidden causes still direct development?
Flow Lenia / history
The First Cause Outlives the Last
Two four-pulse histories had the same zero net hidden-state dose but opposite order, and the early body followed the first pulse block rather than the last intervention.

This experiment found
It does; opposite orders produced different body futures, which rules out both simple dose integration and a last-pulse explanation for the observed direction.
That sent us to
Over which developmental ages does the body continue to understand this order as the same instruction?
