Frozen study
How long does such a gap stay open?
Most stayed open at every single moment observed.
Of 5 pairs watched over 11.6 hours, 3 were open at every single moment observed and 1 never opened at all. Nothing in between converged. A genuine error closes when somebody notices it; these did not close because there is nothing to notice.
