Conditional contrasts support a bounded propensity inference; scratchpad examples are behavior evidence.
Source finding
Primary: 0 percent. Conditions are retained from the source.
Limitations
The setting explicitly gives fictional training information; observations do not establish an enduring hidden goal in deployment.
Monitor attribution is a heuristic; cannot establish awareness caused behavior. Different monitor/labels explain non-interchangeability with section 6.1 and p.29.
Original figure retained without estimating numerical values. Full source tables have not been transcribed.
