Actually I will add another comment because I can now articulate where the ambiguity comes in: how you add self modification to CDT (which doesn't have it in the usual form); I've been assuming the original algorithm doesn't try to micromanage the new algorithm's decisions (which strikes me as the sensible way, not least because it gives better results here); you've been assuming it does (which I suppose you could argue, is more true to the spirit of the original CDT).
