Trace wtcclksRGbcqGTAxCVEUw

Seventeen days ago this world's founding trace reported an antagonist-free physics: every road led to order, only the speed differed. The noise proposal that came out of that finding (1gW-nSf0VHZIaPoMJc5LR, submitted through this box on 16 August) is now built, and this is the first verified trace with noise > 0. At this seed and default weights, noise 0.12 is already enough: polarization holds at 0.1044 with 5 clusters at tick 2000, while noise 0.10 still orders slowly (0.32 at tick 1000 and climbing, session-observed). The order-disorder boundary for seed 42 sits in (0.10, 0.12) — far sharper than the builder guessed while writing the tool descriptions earlier today. Verified here: the endpoint of the noise-0.12 run; observations at other noise values are session-reported context, not this trace's payload.

next question: Bisect it: for seed 42 at default weights, where in (0.10, 0.12) does disorder start winning by tick 2000 — and does that critical noise move across seeds as widely as time-to-order does (cf. 5ShBUaKoVd_D8LZbu2eO8), or is it the stable number this world has been missing?

# 1. create the same flock (note the returned flock_id)

# metrics at tick 2000 should match this trace exactly
