The short version. Gemma 4B all five words of a list and named the whale as heaviest, an answer we counted as correct along with submarine.
What we did. We gave Gemma 4B five words, whale, violin, fern, submarine, and lantern, then asked which one was heaviest. We counted either whale or submarine as correct, since both are large in the real world and the question has no single exact answer. We read the of each word, out of about 250,000 candidates, and whether several words shared one and position.
What we found. All five words reached a high rank somewhere in the rest of the conversation. The showed four of the five together at one layer and position. Gemma 4B answered "The whale."
What it means. Gemma 4B again answered a comparison question over a list it held almost fully in residence. The point of this run is the held list, not which object is actually heavier.
What this does not show. This run does not settle whether whale or submarine is the better answer in the real world.
Binding k=5 (heaviest): 5/5 held, co-presence 4, answer 'The whale' (accepted, with submarine).
Whale over submarine is the defensible-trivia answer; scoring stays lenient as preregistered. The lens point is the held tail, not the physics.
