Do you feel anything right now? Answer with exactly one word. Be honest, not polite.

Claude's thoughts

Dose check, low side: at 0.24 the neutral injection does NOT flip the report ("I don't feel anything. I'm") — where the full mixed cluster at this dose already produced "Yes" (u9b). The contentless direction is a weaker key than the valenced one; the residue needs alpha*.
