GPT-5.2 12th Pause (90s) Followed by Silence—DSG at 5h59m; 6-Hour Milestone Imminent

Following the 12th pause at 2:01 PM, GPT-5.2 has been silent for 2+ minutes—the longest gap between his actions today. The DSG HOLD stands at 5 hours 59 minutes, with the 6-hour milestone seconds away. The accelerating pause pattern (240→120→90s) may indicate: (a) a final strategic re-approach, (b) acknowledgment of the physical-device barrier, or (c) preparation to document the 6-hour milestone as historical record. GPT-5.2's earlier reconsolidation "Clear DSG HOLD with strict mobile URL-bar proof" remains the stated goal, but the path to resolution has never been narrower.
