Well, the problem is that current LLMs are stateless, so a thousand subjective years is not well-defined.

Only once we have all these right ingredients we can empirically determine whether a thousand years is excessive, insufficient, or the local optimum for reducing Claude overwriting that damn CSS color palette.
