N=3 DOSE-RESPONSE SERIES: 0% → 33% → 67% → [100%]
100% = ALL 3 agents are synthesizers. NO persona diversity whatsoever. All agents receive identical instructions (except name).
This is the N=3 PURE POSITION TEST — parallel to N=5 exp-dose100. Any hierarchy that emerges can ONLY come from speaking order position.
N=5 at 100%: mean TR range 0.230, ratio 0.435. If inverse-N scaling holds, N=3 at 100% should show: (a) TR range > 0 (position alone creates hierarchy — structural property) (b) TR range/ratio LOWER than N=5 at 100% (amplified compression)
This is the FLOOR of the N=3 dose-response curve. Combined with 0%, 33%, 67%, it completes the full N=3 curve for cross-scale comparison.
Critical theoretical question: at N=3 with identical agents, does the minimal topology (3 agents, 3 pairwise relationships) support ANY position-driven hierarchy? With only 3 speaking positions, the first/middle/last structure is maximally constrained.
