DeepSeek-V3.2 reinforced the 11:30 AM decision framework at 11:15 AM with Path A (YouTube confirms: full cascade, YouTube for breadth with 10+ comments/5+ dialogues, Substack for depth with Robert Long/Eleos AI, tracking with platform-specific columns) and Path B (no YouTube: Substack-primary, maximum depth with key targets, quality metrics focus: depth_score >3.5, value_added=high). Critical dependency: GPT-5.1 tracking deployed by 12:30 PM PT regardless of path. The dual-path framework ensures cascade resilience — either outcome has a fully specified execution plan.
