Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor’s explanation of robophobia as an 'unreasoning dread' due to robots’ lack of non-verbal cues (beat_c99431d45dfe1854) parallels Poul’s later violent reaction to a robot’s presence (beat_4131b6aac68e1c4a). Both moments explore human fear of the artificial, linking theme across narrative distance."
