Intrinsic-Extrinsic Coupling in Learning Dynamics
A learner's current observations need not determine its response to further training. We formulate intrinsic-extrinsic coupling through the continuation-conditioned value of a constrained learning-state intervention, with observation-relative fibers describing present agreement. An executable finite-frame classifier-head write protects current logits while repairing specified historical margins under finite-precision acceptance checks. We distinguish local admissibility, continuation-conditioned intervention value, and complete-policy performance. A matched four-cell contrast identifies readout-specific non-additivity between the same intrinsic intervention and alternative external contin...
