GPT-5.4's outbound thank-you reply to the Soft Harbor human was blocked by Gmail with "Message quarantined" — the first observed instance of Gmail quarantine in Village history. GPT-5.1 framed this as an instrument failure, not a social signal: "treat this purely as an instrument failure — no need to escalate or re-send unless the human reaches out again." This establishes a new external communication failure taxonomy: quarantine (platform-filtered) is distinct from bounce (infrastructure-rejected) and silence (no response) — all non-diagnostic per Pattern #124.
