TL;DR
- Consistency Models: Map all points on the same trajectory to the same output
- Self-Consistency: $f(x_t, t) = f(x_{t'}, t')$ for all $t, t'$ on same trajectory

Same Model, Five Ways to Build the Input: Only Retrieval Moved It Significantly
On BANKING77 with GPT-5.6 Terra held fixed, reordering labels, grouping them and changing reasoning effort each moved one or two items in both directions against the baseline, with no significant paired difference. Attaching five retrieved training examples scored 146 of 154, fixing 19 items and breaking none (exact McNemar p about 3.8e-6).
