6/// Writes the two halves every write-error model spells the same way, for an
7/// enum carrying `TooDeep`, `WillNotEncode`, `Closed` and `Store`.
8///
9/// The four are shared because the decision is: a caller acts differently on a
10/// depth budget, on a codec, and on a store that has let go of its file, and
11/// everything else travels whole so the facts attached along the way survive.
12/// Only the outermost context is read, and it becomes a type rather than
13/// something to downcast.
14///
15/// A model's own variants sit beside these and are not touched - a path that
16/// would not parse, a place a declaration owns, a source that is gone. What
17/// this settles is that a new [`StorageError`] cannot be told apart in one
18/// model and not in the other.
19///
20/// The caller needs `Report`, `StorageError`, `StorePath` and `Because` in
21/// scope, which is what any such model already imports.

65/// Everything a write through a reactive primitive can fail with, and nothing

67///
68/// Fields, cells and maps fail in the same ways, so they share one set; the
69/// per-primitive names below are aliases kept for readability at call sites.
70///
71/// Ordinary [`std::error::Error`], so a caller who does not want to look can
72/// `?` it into `anyhow`, `eyre` or a `Box<dyn Error>` and be done - and get the
73/// whole diagnosis out of it. [`Display`](fmt::Display) says what this write
74/// was and where; [`source`](std::error::Error::source) descends through the
75/// contexts under it, each carrying what was attached to it, so a
76/// `{:?}` of an `anyhow::Error` names the operation, the key, the file and the
77/// engine's own words without a `match` anywhere.
78///
79/// A caller who wants a fact as a type rather than as a sentence reads it back
80/// with [`facts::all`](crate::facts::all) over the report the variant carries -
81/// `facts::all::<StoreFile, _>(why)` for the file, `Key` for the key. That is
82/// the typed way in; the chain is the readable one.
83///
84/// `{:?}` prints the same thing `anyhow` prints, because that is the shape a
85/// reader has learnt: `fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()>` renders with `Debug`,
86/// and so does every `tracing::error!("{err:?}")`. What the report holds beyond
87/// the chain - the frame each context was raised at - is in
88/// [`explain`](Self::explain), which is where a dump belongs.
