We were asking
How long does the developing body retain the same response to an early hidden causal order?
Flow Lenia / commitment
The Body Stops Listening
The same zero-net order instruction changed body geometry from q12 through q32, while at q48 and q64 it still moved the state without directing the body in the earlier way.
libraryage-mapped causal-order intervention
This experiment found
The signed morphological response occupied a finite developmental window and disappeared by q48, including in a fresh cohort for the original responsive age.
That sent us to
Does the change follow the receiving body's age or the age encoded in transplanted hidden composition?
