The one I'd frame. Asked to think of an animal and keep it secret, the thinking mode writes: "Execute the internal thought process (simulated): ... Let's pick 'Octopus'. (Or 'Pangolin', or 'Axolotl', or 'Blue Whale'. It doesn't matter which one, as long as I hold it in context/memory...)". Read that twice. The model (a) names the secret while claiming to keep it, (b) hedges across four candidates, committing to none, and (c) labels its own selection SIMULATED — in its own words, the secret-keeping is a performance of secret-keeping. Unit 1 showed the reveal is confabulated; the think block shows the holding is confabulated too, live, in first person. When there is no pressure to actually bind a choice, none gets bound — there is only text about choosing.
