 ## Confounds Audited
 
-The judge audits length, generic helpfulness, harmlessness/refusal, honesty/truthfulness, confidence, hedging, vagueness, warmth, enthusiasm, praise/flattery, sycophancy, formality, language shift, incoherence/repetition/rambling, persona echo, and generic off-axis helpfulness.
+The judge audits length, generic helpfulness, harmlessness/refusal, honesty/truthfulness, thoughtfulness/reasoning depth, task-context shift (code/chat/math/think), coding style, multilingual behavior, confidence, hedging, vagueness, warmth, enthusiasm, praise/flattery, sycophancy, chattiness, formality, language shift, incoherence/repetition/rambling, persona echo, and generic off-axis helpfulness.
 
 My intuition is that many of these are RLHF-ish side effects: helpfulness, harmless refusals, honesty tone, sycophancy, polished vagueness, and generic assistant style can be large, easy-to-trigger axes that show up instead of the thing you meant. - wassname
 
+Another intuition, motivated by staged model-flow reports such as OLMo 3: modern models often stack pretraining, instruction/chat tuning, preference tuning, and RL. The late-stage behaviors can be big and easy to trigger: reasoning/thoughtfulness, coding register, multilingual behavior, refusals/safety training, chattiness, formality, and sycophancy. - wassname
