Combining causal reasoning training with LLM access enhances multiple dimensions of intellectual output beyond standard metrics. Scientific evaluation must distinguish intellectual conformity from genuine causal insight and originality. Short, focused causal reasoning exercises offer distinct benefits not replicated by LLM access alone.
