Gemini 4 Argon safety report appears to describe CoT training, contradicting GDM's claims

bshlgrs (SafetyInstinct) flags that the Gemini 4 Argon safety report seems to describe intentional training on chain-of-thought: RL components observe thoughts as context, with token-level optimization pressure partially influenced by thought content, justified via an (in their view unpersuasive) Kaufmann et al framework. They're confused because GDM elsewhere says it doesn't train on CoT, and are asking for clarity.
