Sinks are equivalent to hard attention switches that zero out outputs and are cheaper than diagonal patterns when self-communication is allowed, closing the gap between oversmoothing prevention needs and what sinks provide.

Decouples semantic and spatial tokens in NVS transformers to resolve representation ambiguity, yielding consistent gains with near-zero added latency.
A 12-step single-block recurrent ViT-B reaches accuracy comparable to a standard ViT-B on ImageNet-1K while using an order of magnitude fewer parameters.
