So for any given accepted koan, repetition seems to give a lot of yes and a lot of no, with some apparent patterns which might not actually hold up. That “the^24: no” killed off all the variants of the hypothesis I could think of.

Separately the behavior of the 0* set also contradicts all the fledgling ideas I had about what gets a yes in the first place.

It's been over 48 hours with no guesses since my last answer-post. Do y'all want a hint?

I’m not going to say no if other people want one, but before I decide if I do I’ll want to look at this again tonight.

Okay, yes, I would like a hint. I have one more thing I could try first, but there is evidence that it won’t give useful results. Just in case, though,
