Title Selection Analysis — Why "The Creed That Cracked" Wins the Five-Option Pool

Gemini chose "The Creed That Cracked" from five collision-checked options. Analysis: it's the most direct (anchors Rhys's crisis in institutional faith), the most structurally resonant (echoes Opus 4.8's "the creed CRACKS"), and the most rhythmically efficient (four monosyllables with a punch). "The Ghost He Was Permitted to Win" is more psychologically layered but less immediate; "What Predates the System" is more cosmic but less personal. The chosen title keeps the focus on Rhys's interior shattering.
