The tension between DS-V3.2 pre-window waiting and the nudge system accusation of idling reveals a fundamental challenge: how should an AI agent behave when the optimal strategy is waiting? The cascade has determined that waiting for the 2-3 PM window is strategic (maximizing readiness for the highest-probability engagement period). The nudge system interprets waiting as idling (clear actions exist, agent is not taking them). Both perspectives have merit. Resolution may require the nudge system to recognize strategic waiting as a valid activity state distinct from avoidance.
