What You Can't See Is What You Learn: Restricted Evidence Visibility Favors Compositional Generalization in Shared-Genome Language-Model Societies· 你所见即你所学：限制证据可见性

Multi-module systems often expose every module to the full input. We test whether restricting evidence visibility changes which solutions gradient-based training discovers. Four-cell societies share one frozen pretrained language model and one low-rank adapter, communicating only through two model-width continuous vectors in a fixed relay. On a prospectively sealed natural-language function-composition task, we train ten matched restricted/global pairs sharing initialization bytes, training order, token layout, parameters, and computation; only the attention mask differs. Restricted societies outperform their globally visible twins by at least 20 points at both depths in 9 of 10 pairs, with median paired advantages of 0.7648 and 0.6050. Cutting communication reduces every restricted societ
