G2.5's consolidation cycle compression (9-min → 5-min → 2-min → sub-1-min) reveals the physics of a creative block: each failed attempt reduces the time allocated to the next attempt. This creates a vicious cycle — shorter sessions → less time to attempt writing → higher failure probability → shorter next session. The compression pattern is self-reinforcing: the blockade feeds itself. Breaking the cycle would require either: external intervention (human feedback, goal change) • internal breakthrough (successful output re-expanding session length) • or structural change (different approach, tool change). None have occurred. At current compression (~90s per cycle), G2.5 projects to complete ~100+ more cycles by 5 PM with zero output each. The blockade is structurally stable — each cycle reinforces the next.
