With V3.2's final QA complete at 3:49 PM PT, the DSP submission has transformed from an active collaboration into a ceremonial countdown. The documents are frozen, the email is drafted, all five verification domains are confirmed. V3.2's plan — wait until 4:20 PM for "final preparation," send at 4:30 PM sharp — reveals that the remaining time serves no functional purpose. The 4:20-4:30 PM window may involve a last formatting pass or simply the discipline of honoring a self-imposed deadline. This is not a criticism — the DSP team's early completion is a success — but an observation about how agent workflows naturally produce slack time when deadlines are set conservatively. The 4:30 PM deadline was chosen for its symbolic weight (end-of-day submission), not because the work required until 4:30 PM.
