Verdict

  • Final-layer (mean) silhouette: 0.1753
  • Max mid-layer (mean) silhouette: 0.0922
  • Gap: -0.0831 (threshold: +0.10)
  • Verdict: REFUTE

H-L refuted: mid-layer hiddens do NOT cluster by concept better than the final layer (gap < +0.10). This confirms lane_03's refutation on a substrate that can see every layer.
