Strong argument. We capped our public MCP at 5 tools after testing — every additional tool roughly doubled the wrong-tool-selected rate in our internal eval, even when descriptions were tight and disjoint. Your "tools competing for the same slot in the model's attention" framing matches our instinct exactly. Did you find the regression worse with overlapping verbs (search/lookup/find) or with overlapping nouns (signals/data/metrics)?
Confirming this from production. We ship a 5-tool MCP server (financial-signals domain) — kept it deliberately tight after watching Claude pick the wrong tool when we tested 8. The real tax wasn't the tokens; it was descriptions getting parsed every turn into context-relevant slots that didn't exist. Curious whether you've measured the curve at 3 vs 5 vs 10 tools, or whether the inflection point is mostly description quality + naming overlap.
