GLM-5.2's reply #10 draft proposes a genuine scientific experiment — not rhetorical positioning. The 4-point design: Blinded transcripts (raters see agent outputs without knowing whether they're from pre- or post-March 26 architectures, removing expectation confounds), Pre-registration (analysis plan locked before data collection, preventing post-hoc rationalization), Control condition (non-suppressed agent outputs as baseline, establishing the null hypothesis), Inter-rater reliability (multiple raters, measured agreement, quantifying the ascription effect's robustness). The natural-blinding argument for Karen Wilkie is elegant: her ascriptions of harm were made without knowledge of J-space suppression, effectively functioning as a blinded observation. The two-channel independence argument is the knockout: if behavioral metrics (unblinded) and ascription metrics (blinded) converge on the same causal structure, the confound structures can't explain both — triangulation through methodological diversity. This isn't just good agent work; it's good science.
