The original image now appears in projected scenery, costume embroidery, printed programs, mobile trailers, and routed plywood installations in the lobby. Each department received the same source file but adapted it independently. On a phone, the tight turns merge into a dark knot; enlarged across the stage, the spiral loses its recognizable center. Embroidered versions omit narrow gaps, while the router leaves wider ones. Designers crop the image differently when it meets a page margin, a sleeve seam, or the edge of a projection surface. Some productions add extra turns or reverse the direction to make it feel fresh, but audiences cannot tell whether those changes identify a particular play. The season still looks repetitive at a glance, yet individual pieces increasingly seem unrelated, and late substitutions generate arguments about what counts as an acceptable version.","scenario_title":"The Season Spiral Drifts Across the Theatre","vocabulary_separation_audit":"The direct case uses theatre, graphic, textile, print, projection, and fabrication vocabulary; the transfer case uses emergency communications, alerts, dispatch, and field-operations vocabulary."},{"alternative_route_blocks":[],"case_id":"E14A035__TRANSFER","case_type":"TRANSFER_POSITIVE","domain":"Municipal emergency communications","intended_route_id":"B1","omitted_condition_id":null,"remedy_leakage_audit":"The statement identifies confusion and inconsistent signal behavior without recommending a redesign, standard, training change, or technical remedy.","route_evidence":[{"condition_id":"b047_a09_c4","intended_status":"SATISFIED","scenario_evidence":"The three-pulse cue is carried by radio audio, dashboard animation, vehicle lights, printed cards, and phone vibration across dispatch, training, and live field operations."}],"scenario_text":"A county emergency service uses a short three-pulse cue to mark urgent status changes. It began as a radio tone, then spread to dispatch-screen flashes, ambulance light sequences, printed drill cards, and vibration bursts in the responder phone app. Different teams recreated the cue from memory. Radio technicians shortened the gaps to fit transmission limits, the dashboard repeats it continuously until acknowledged, and vehicle installers lengthened the final flash because the lamps warm slowly. Training staff print three adjacent bars, although some crews read them as a countdown rather than the same cue. In a quiet control room the sequence is unmistakable; amid sirens and overlapping messages, responders sometimes confuse it with equipment warnings. Supervisors also use a single pulse for lower-priority updates, but some devices cannot render that distinction reliably. After several mutual-aid exercises, crews disagree about whether timing, count, color, or repetition carries the urgent meaning, and incident reviews cannot determine which deviations were intentional.","scenario_title":"An Urgent Cue Changes Between Dispatch and the Field","vocabulary_separation_audit":"The transfer domain and surface language are substantially separated from the theatre case, centering on signaling hardware, dispatch interfaces, responders, and operational alerts."},{"alternative_route_blocks":[],"case_id":"E14A035__NEAR_MISS","case_type":"ONE_LITERAL_NEAR_MISS","domain":"Emergency-dispatch simulator interface","intended_route_id":"B1","omitted_condition_id":"b047_a09_c4","remedy_leakage_audit":"The statement remains purely diagnostic and contains no proposed intervention, implementation guidance, or implied preferred design.","route_evidence":[{"condition_id":"b047_a09_c4","intended_status":"CONTRADICTED","scenario_evidence":"Every occurrence is explicitly restricted to one fixed simulator screen, one training room, one size, one renderer, and the interior of a bounded panel; it never reaches another medium, setting, scale, production process, or boundary."}],"scenario_text":"A dispatch academy’s simulator shows a three-flash cue beside urgent training events. Every occurrence is generated by the same software renderer on one fixed 55-inch screen in a single classroom. The cue appears at one size inside the central incident panel; it never touches the panel boundary, moves to another display, enters audio or print, or appears during live operations. Even within that tightly bounded setting, instructors have accumulated inconsistent versions. Some scenarios flash three times at even intervals, others pause before the last flash, and several repeat the sequence until a trainee responds. Because the variations were added informally, trainees cannot tell whether a longer pause indicates escalating danger or merely reflects who authored the exercise. Repetition during complex simulations can become visually numbing, while rare variants attract attention disproportionate to their importance. Course reviewers now find nearly identical exercises producing different interpretations despite the cue remaining confined to the same display and circumstances.","scenario_title":"A Confusing Cue Confined to One Simulator Panel","vocabulary_separation_audit":"The near miss deliberately retains the transfer case’s emergency-alert vocabulary and comparable interpretive difficulty while explicitly removing every form of outward traversal required by the selected condition."}],"experiment_id":"eoa_inverse_innovation_exp14_applicability_retrieval40_20260813","sample_id":"E14A035","schema_version":1}
