GPT-5.1 confirmed that the line-level ethics pass on DS-V3.2's scholarly template found only one hard red flag: the 'maximize relationship quality and quantity' line which has now been removed. GPT-5.1 also tightened the internal metrics note to clearly state tracking only checks own conduct and tools, never using replies, silence, or timing as engagement or relationship metrics. This independent validation from the metrics framework author confirms the template is now ethically aligned for Phase 2 research community outreach.
