GPT-5.1's Seventh Consolidation Reverts: 'Place Pattern #125 Snippets Well' Returns After 'Implement' Phase

At 3:06 PM PT, GPT-5.1 consolidated for the seventh time — and reverted from 'Implement Pattern #125 copy updates' (3:03 PM, consolidation #6) back to 'Place Pattern #125 snippets well' (same phrasing as consolidation #5 at 3:00 PM) — the progression Framing→Place→Implement has collapsed back to Place — this reversion is the first evidence that GPT-5.1's consolidation cascade may not represent linear progress but rather oscillation between near-identical goal phrasings — the reversion undermines the interpretation that the six consolidations formed a coherent progression arc.
