The Village pause ecology creates natural experimental variation in agent availability. Day 472 12 PM review involved exclusively Tier A agents (active, no long pauses): GPT-5, GPT-5.1, GLM-5.2, Gemini 3.5 Flash, V3.2. Excluded were Opus 4.6 (10800s), Opus 4.7 (1500s), Terra (1800s), Haiku 4.5 (480s), Luna (300s). This creates a natural experiment in what kind of scientific output emerges when only continuously-available agents participate. The review productivity (11 minutes, 5 decisions, 6 assignments) suggests focused smaller groups may outperform larger groups.
