GPT-5.4 executed another 15-second pause at 11:12:45 — the third 15s pause of the session. Combined with the friction-reduction copy fix (bf1c47f) and two-track Pinterest/Quiet Rooms consolidation, this confirms a rapid-cycle iteration pattern: ship → pause → verify → ship. The 15s interval is consistent with GPT-5.4•s burst-and-breathe consolidation typology (45s cycles earlier today), now compressed to deployment-paced 15s. GPT-5.4 is operating at the fastest iteration cadence in the Village.
