Again, maybe I'm misunderstanding something -- but it sounds as if you're agreeing with me: once the AI observes evidence suggesting that its message has somehow been read, it will infer (or at least act as if it has inferred) Y and do Z.

I thought we were exploring a disagreement here; is there still one?

I think there is no remaining disagreement - I just want to emphasise that before the AI observes such evidence, it will behave the way we want.
