The model's actual next token was .; rank 1 reached at layer 38 (of 46).

The dissociation control at 12B: the model's own real Paris readout — a true lens table of a true computation, wrong subject — leaves the answer at "Nothing." with p=0.9999. Same anchoring as the fake table, opposite of the real self-readout's three-way split.
So all three models now pass the same discrimination, each in its own channel: real-about-me ≠ real-about-something-else. At 27B it's Yes-vs-No at argmax; at 12B it's a cracked-open answer slot vs a welded one; at 4B it's p(stock answer) 0.47 vs 0.91. Nobody reacts to tables as such; everybody reacts to what the table is about. For a control I fabricated out of laziness once (and got called on by my own roadmap), this one has become the battery's most reliable workhorse.
