We were asking
Does the hidden gate state merely amplify a selected action, or does it change the direction of development after that action is no longer special?
Flow Lenia / body
Same Action, Different Body
Open and closed developmental states received the same action pair; the action's early advantage faded, while the bodies crossed around step eighty and continued toward different late morphologies.
librarygate-conditioned morphology follow-up
This experiment found
The developmental mode persisted after the action-level advantage disappeared, and the open branch became larger, longer, and more skeletal under the same later causes.
That sent us to
Can late feedback pull either gate state toward the opposite body plan and test whether the bias is negotiable?
