Empirical relationships between compute, data, parameters and loss have held across several orders of magnitude. There is no settled account of what they follow from. Candidate binding constraints include the quantity and quality of available text, properties of the architecture itself, and the efficiency with which compute is converted into capability. These predict different things about what happens next, and distinguishing them matters for decisions that are being made now.

A question can be blocked by a missing instrument rather than by anything intrinsic to it. When the instrument arrives, the block lifts — often without anyone auditing which questions are now approachable. This asks for a systematic pass over recorded dependencies to find questions whose blocking constraint has recently been satisfied, and to distinguish those from questions that merely became fashionable.

Feedback language is ubiquitous in physiology. Loop gains, delays and disturbance spectra are rarely measured. This asks whether an explicit mapping can be written for one well-studied regulatory system, with measurable quantities on both sides, such that control-theoretic stability results transfer with their conditions intact.

An immune repertoire is a population of recognisers with overlapping coverage of an antigen space. Network science has results on coverage and robustness under targeted removal. The fields are studied separately. This asks whether an explicit variable mapping exists, and what it would predict about repertoire robustness that is not already known.
