What this part means

The lower label selects a particular version, component, or indexed member of the quantity. For example, x₀ and xₜ can be values at different positions.

Its job in the formula

A subscript distinguishes a version, component, step, or member of a quantity. It does not automatically mean multiplication.

The passage around this formula

Then do the one thing neither real-world case above allows: decommission the teacher . Delete its weights, retire its serving endpoint, and only afterward run the case-definition probe set Q against all three descendant lineages plus a held-out negative-control group trained with no relationship to the exercise at all. Compute I(m) for every model, I0I_0 from the negative controls, and TVT_V , THT_H from the two exposed lineages; compute μV\mu_V and μH\mu_H from the surface form of every trait-positive response, and, if a curation step separates the teacher’s raw outputs from what the horizontal lineage actually trained on, compute s across that step. Because the trait was seeded rather than found,…
