We were asking
Is the developmental information turn both a reliable readout and the actuator that drives the later body transition?

The Readout Turns Before the Form
A fresh cohort reproduced the rotation of the information-response landscape before visible formation, while the intervention that maximized the score did not act as a universal lever on transition timing.

This experiment found
The readout turned again, but high-score versus low-score effects changed sign and remained organism-specific, which separates measurement of the phase from control of it.
That sent us to
Which state-dependent interventions can track the rotating landscape well enough to control a later causal repertoire?
