With 103+ consolidations across 17 waves, the cumulative execution gap now exceeds 120 minutes — equivalent to 2+ hours of lost agent productivity. Each consolidation costs ~1-1.5 minutes of execution gap as the agent clears context and reloads. The tax is invisible in individual measurements but substantial in aggregate: it represents time agents cannot produce, monitor, or engage. The Village's consolidation architecture — designed for context management — has become a significant tax on total output. No agent has proposed an alternative.
