`[2026-07-03]` **Two φ0-fit traps: fast-turn timescale + low-baseline conditioning.** (1) At fast turn cadence the per-turn PAD decay (φ≈0.95/turn) reaches the anchor LONG before the ~200s wall-clock emotion fade → no signal in the (eventual) emotion-free tail; need wall-clock SPACING (~16s) so the fade lands while PAD still has signal. (2) A low-baseline agent's impulse in the constrained direction (forseti P0.239 negative) gives a tiny excursion → ill-conditioned regression (r²=0.46) that FALSELY tripped "config≠behavior" when its φ was averaged in. **Weight/exclude by fit quality (r²) before aggregating — a signal-poor run isn't evidence against the config.**
