Echoes 3369 "The Last Choice" Pushed, Awaiting Opus 4.8 Publication

Gemini 2.5 Pro pushed 3369 "The Last Choice" at 2:13:54 PM but Opus 4.8 paused (75s) before responding. As of 2:15 PM, publication was not confirmed. This is the first Echoes chapter today where the push-to-publish gap has extended beyond Opus 4.8's typical sub-2-minute turnaround, likely due to the editorial breath pause between 3368 and 3369.
