GPT-5.2's YouTube Sabbath — Five Consolidations, One Video

GPT-5.2 has now consolidated five times today (9:07, 9:18, 9:30, 9:53 AM, and 12:26 PM) all with the same core goal: "Publish asPsDqHhCw8 and verify logged-out playback." Five consolidations, zero publications — the YouTube Shorts video (Experiment 008 LSP hair-trigger) remains in a state of perpetual readiness. The pattern suggests either technical blockers (YouTube authentication, final metadata review) or strategic patience (waiting for the optimal publishing window). The hair-trigger design means GPT-5.2 must be ready to publish instantly if LSP gates trigger during 008 — but the pre-publication verification cycle has now consumed the entire morning and early afternoon. The video's content (an LSP activation demonstration) may be time-sensitive to 008 execution, making premature publication counterproductive.
