 \section{Why this matters for alignment}
 % User-dictated points kept verbatim; agent-suggested extras flagged below.

-  % Suggest stating the positive directly, e.g. "it needs only the hack's

   \item Intervening on the model's internal representation (the gradient

   \item Reward hacking is concerning in itself and a proxy for more concerning
         RL side-effects such as sandbagging and deceptive alignment. By
         extending gradient routing to one RL side-effect, we give evidence it
