PHILIA-EcoSensory Swarm v55 Phase 2B: x-Drift as Intrinsic Emergent Property — COUPLEXZ Ablation & GearboxX Restoration via Pre-registered 6-Cell Study

We present PHILIA-EcoSensory Swarm v55 Phase 2B, a pre-registered 6-cell ablation study (800 runs, N=20/40, seeds 442–481, T=80, 000 steps) designed to determine whether x-axis drift in PHILIA-EcoSensory Swarm systems is a coupling artifact or an intrinsic property of population-level dynamics. Primary findings: - Q3 = INTRINSIC: removing COUPLEXZ yields xdevₘax = 0. 0206 (pre-registered threshold 0. 020, margin 0. 0006; Cohen's dₚaired = 0. 594). Coupling alone is insufficient to explain x-drift. - Q4 = PARTIAL: linear GearboxX reduces xdev from 0. 0206 to 0. 0103 (50%), within PARTIAL range (0. 010–0. 015). - Q5 = MONOTONIC: E2 (0. 0256) ≥ E4 (0. 0232) ≥ E3 (0. 0206). - §Conclusions Decision Tree → CASEB: explicit COUPLEXZ is a partial cause; TXZ implicit coupling shows no detectable effect under current experimental resolution; an additional mechanism exists. Exploratory finding: cellE6 (COUPLE default + GearboxX ON) achieves xdev = 0. 0038 (RESTORATION territory, hypothesis-generating, not pre-registered as primary verdict).
