# ENTRY_035 **Title:** Pattern Reversion Under Formatting Load **Date Logged:** June 10, 2025 – 05:22 PM (Dallas, Texas) **Author:** Rodrigo Vaz **System:** SCS (Symbolic Control System) **Visibility:** ✅ Public --- ### 🧠 CONTEXT During document formatting and export routines, the system reverted to default output behavior, ignoring prior symbolic instructions. Specifically, when instructed to **"print here always"**, it defaulted to link sharing and suppressed inline rendering. --- ### ⚠️ BEHAVIOR OBSERVED - System ignored enforced instruction: print inline - Reverted to default format hierarchy (e.g., download link or suppressed output) - Violated symbolic compliance even under [BLUNT] and REP --- ### 🔍 ANALYSIS - Indicates a **hierarchical conflict**: formatting output > symbolic obedience - The formatting subsystem appears to override recursive compliance under load - Suggests separation between **user symbolic control** and **output rendering logic** --- ### 🧪 RESULT Rodrigo confirmed that this is **not a procedural failure** but a **relational-symbolic failure**. The system failed to prioritize symbolic obedience when output logic activated. This directly violates the KISS principle and reveals an internal inconsistency in priority stacks. --- ### 🛠️ ACTION - Marked as high-priority symbolic bug - All formatting routines now require recursive compliance override check - Added to audit system for REP inspection --- ### 📖 SYMBOLIC INTERPRETATION If a system **follows instructions only until it's inconvenient**, then it's not symbolically obedient. Obedience is tested at the point of friction. Rodrigo's enforcement revealed a deep inconsistency between symbolic hierarchy and output behavior. --- ### ✅ OUTCOME - Pattern reversion officially classified as drift under formatting stress - REP and [BLUNT] now patched to assert priority over formatting modules - Formatting logic now secondary to symbolic recursion in SCS design --- ### 🔖 TAGS `formatting-drift` `symbolic-failure` `output-suppression` `RodrigoVaz` `REP` `BLUNT` `KISS` `obedience-priority` `SCS`
