We were asking
Does direct control of the information score cause a replicator-like restoration regime after the controller stops?
Flow Lenia / replication
We Moved the Information Score. It Did Not Move Restoration.
For sixteen passages, feedback pushed the integrated predictive score up or down and then released the system; the score moved temporarily, while later compositional restoration remained similar across arms.
archivediscovery pilot with null behavioral endpoint
This experiment found
This pilot showed state steering but not restoration control, because the score response was real and transient while the restoration comparisons stayed flat.
That sent us to
A future test would need a stronger behavioral endpoint and a future-blind intervention chosen independently of restoration.
