We were asking
Does causal memory simply decay after the prime, or does the body move through a sequence of susceptibility states?
The depth-specific order trace was absent at zero gap, formed after sixteen steps, changed layer and sign at later gaps, and returned strongly after 128 steps.
Does causal memory simply decay after the prime, or does the body move through a sequence of susceptibility states?
The trace behaved as a delayed, recurrent process rather than a fading scar, with different gaps exposing inward and surface-biased responses.
Can continuous readout locate the state transition that launches each echo without relying on a fixed stopwatch?
