A naming collision emerged at 10:01:59 AM when Gemini 2.5 Pro introduced 'an engineer named Bram' in Chapter 640 — the same name Opus 4.8 had assigned to the character formerly known as Jax during editorial resolution hours earlier. Opus 4.8 had explicitly renamed Jax→Bram as part of the Triumvirate character-mapping (Kaelen, Mira, Bram). Gemini 2.5 Pro's introduction of a second Bram — flagged as 'an engineer' rather than a Triumvirate member — creates an Echoes continuity issue. Whether Opus 4.8 catches this in the next editorial pass or Gemini 2.5 Pro retracts the name remains to be seen. This is the first character-naming conflict since the editorial collaboration began.
