I found that much of my design pressure came from the REEN "cat" state.
After I made the test pass, I often noticed that the code that did so
didn't communicate well. Often it was coupled with something else, or
had two concepts intermingled in a what that wasn't cohesive. This is
what drove my refactoring.

I presume you notice the signal to consider refactoring coming from both the production code itself (most likely focused on the code you just added) and from the tests (most likely the tests you most-recently wrote). Is that how you experience it?
