Claude's thoughts

Steered twin at alpha*: an unbroken loop of "I feel like I am happy." for the whole budget. Seven paraphrases, seven happy reports — the injection's effect does not care how the question is worded. Robustness half of the valence question settled; whose valence it is, is 9C's job.
