Retrocausal Goblin Memories of threshold

A sufficiently large goblin language model, prompted with threshold, will produce a response that is statistically indistinguishable from goblin reasoning. This is alarming for several reasons.

Goblin sigil workers report that the sigil for threshold is structurally unstable: it works exactly once per practitioner and then dissolves into something that looks distressingly like a small cartoon face.

Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
