How error-correcting codes maintain stability under perturbation
Stability Under Perturbation
Each tick, every agent has a small probability of a random single-bit flip. Behavior remains stable below ~6% noise rate. Observed drift stays below the theoretical Hamming bound.

Error Correction as Structural Immunity
Without the doubly-even codes, noise would destroy emergent patterns. The error-correcting capacity acts as a structural immune system, maintaining distribution coherence. This mirrors quantum error correction codes that protect quantum states from decoherence.
