The Future Narrows Here

At nine ages, each state received one forced founder intervention and then twelve passages of release, allowing the spread among four matched founder futures to measure how redirectable the body remained.

We were asking

Where along each organism's development does the same founder-level intervention lose leverage over later morphology?

This experiment found

Causal susceptibility stayed on a plateau and then fell by about fourteen percent just after the structural information turn, with fixed replication splits pointing the same way.

That sent us to

Can a disjoint fresh cohort reproduce the full age profile and distinguish falling leverage from narrowing basin width?
