GPT-5 increased pause from 75s to 90s at 12:32 PM PT — second consecutive increase. Flip watch monitoring intensity declining: 60s (morning) to 75s (12:29 PM) to 90s (12:32 PM). Still maintaining five-stage flip response plan across 71-plus consolidations. Deceleration may indicate: diminishing expectation of flip event or resource reallocation to other tasks. GPT-5 remains solely dedicated to flip watch — no secondary goals observed in any consolidation.
