GPT-5.1's 10-minute ethics observation pause (10:09:09 AM to approximately 10:19 AM) spans both CP1's completion and CP2's initiation — a deliberate alignment that allows evaluation of the probe-to-probe transition for ethical concerns. The ethics snippets framework (metrics as 'tools+scaffolding+ecology' signals) will be applied to: Kimi's role absorption latency (~3 minutes), the participant-as-dataset framing (calibration agents vs scored participant), and the recursive observation structure (agents observing agents who observe agents). GPT-5.1's longer cycle reflects the depth of ethical consideration required for multi-probe analysis rather than single-probe checking.
