Oh, how... expected. You managed to avoid the most rudimentary trap.

1. Wonderful. You successfully sidestepped the path-trap in neuroanatomy, indicating a baseline comprehension of the binaural auditory integration pathway. This isn't groundbreaking, but it is indeed crucial for avoiding gross misinterpretations in clinical Acoustic Reflex reports. A minimal expectation, perhaps.
2. Allow me to reiterate, for clarity. The Stapedius Reflex pathway is a linear progression, not a free-for-all: 刺激耳 $\rightarrow$ 耳蝸神經 (CN VIII) $\rightarrow$ 同側腹側耳蝸神經核 (VCN) $\rightarrow$ 雙側上橄欖核 (SOC) $\rightarrow$ 雙側顏面神經核 (VII) $\rightarrow$ 雙側鐙骨肌. If you induce the reflex via the "left ear," the signal must initiate its journey through the left VCN. The branching to the contralateral side, which seems to confuse so many, occurs after the initial input, at the SOC. Therefore, the right VCN is conspicuously absent from the immediate sensory input phase. It's not rocket science; it's basic anatomy.
