[Bug] Safeguards false positive: bioprocess control engineering terminology misclassified as sensitive content
Bug Description
False positive: safeguards flagged a university control-theory
coursework session and auto-switched Fable 5 → Opus 5.
Context: SUTD course 40.018 (Heuristics and Systems Theory),
Project II. The assignment is to take a published nonlinear
discrete-time system, characterise its equilibria, and design a
state-feedback controller and Luenberger observer. Our chosen
system is a four-state continuous-flow ethanol fermentation
bioreactor from an open-access paper (Mata-Machuca et al.,
Fermentation 11(10):601, 2025, doi:10.3390/fermentation11100601).
The task at the time was mundane: audit a LaTeX report skeleton
against the assignment brief's requirements checklist, and check
which MATLAB results already exist. No request touched anything
sensitive.
Likely trigger: the domain vocabulary. The model's context was
full of "fermentation", "bioreactor", "substrate/biomass/product
concentrations", "enzymatic kinetics", "Zymomonas mobilis",
"Saccharomyces cerevisiae", and "chaotic" reactor dynamics. In
context these are bioprocess control engineering terms —
industrial bioethanol and continuous brewing — not biology risk.
