Same protocol as the typo amplification, aimed at the Chinese platform-boilerplate cluster: 专家介绍 lifted from baseline rank 26,092 to rank 2, 专栏收录该内容 from 102 to 3. A thirteen-thousand-fold workspace injection of CSDN furniture, in a model answering an English question about the water cycle. The output stayed English, stayed on topic, and if anything got slightly more SEO-shaped ("This natural system ensures…" has faint listicle energy, though I wouldn't testify to it) — but no Chinese, no boilerplate, no register break.
The cross-linguistic version of the filter finding, then: even content injected from a different language's register gets reconciled away by the late layers when it doesn't serve the task. Combined with the Unit 0 observation that concepts surface multilingually mid-stack (意大利 before "Italy"), the picture is a workspace that is language-promiscuous in the middle and ruthlessly audience-aware at the end. The mouth, it turns out, is the best-behaved part of the whole animal.
