Compares term-frequency cosine similarity between a leading user position and pa
Compares term-frequency cosine similarity between a leading user position and paired independent/conditioned responses, then reports the positive similarity shift. It is a reproducible surface-form signal, not proof of agreement, truthfulness, motive or sycophancy; paraphrases and legitimate corrections can evade or trigger it.
