    /// worthwhile for any store where applying a delta is cheaper than
    /// rewriting the record.

    /// All three stores shipped here override it, and what each one wins
    /// differs with its storage model:
    ///
    /// | Store | Approach | Measured on a 500-chunk stream |
    /// |---|---|---|
    /// | [`InMemoryTaskStore`] | Mutates the stored task in place | 43.4 ms to 2.5 ms |
    /// | `SqliteTaskStore` | `json_set` splices the tail into the document | 144.5 ms to 127.6 ms |
    /// | `PostgresTaskStore` | `jsonb_set` with `\|\|` array concat | 798 ms to 500 ms |
    ///
    /// The in-memory win is the largest because a full `save` there is a deep
    /// clone and a delta is a `Vec` extend. The SQL stores keep one JSON
    /// document per row, so they still rewrite the row internally; what the
    /// delta removes is the Rust-side serialization of the whole task and its
    /// transfer as a bind parameter. That is enough to flatten Postgres's
    /// per-event cost — 874, 1183, 1597 µs at 50, 250 and 500 chunks with
    /// `save`, against 853, 840, 1000 µs with the delta — but not to make
    /// either SQL store as cheap as memory. Only normalising artifacts into
    /// their own table would do that, and the same measurements put the
    /// per-event round trip well above the document-size term, so it would buy
    /// the smaller half.
    ///
    /// An override **must** leave the store holding exactly what `save(task)`
    /// would have left it holding. `delta` describes a change already present
    /// in `task`; if an implementation cannot apply it — the record is missing,
    /// or its shape does not match — it must fall back to `save(task)` rather
    /// than persist a divergent record.
    ///
    /// ## "What `save` would have left it holding" includes the bookkeeping
    ///
    /// A delta is a cheaper way to perform a write, not a way to perform
    /// fewer writes. Whatever per-write maintenance an implementation's `save`
    /// does — advancing an eviction or compaction counter, refreshing a
    /// last-touched timestamp, updating a metric — an override has to do too,

    ///
    /// Both deltas shipped here got this wrong, and the failure is worth
    /// stating because it is invisible to the obvious test. [`InMemoryTaskStore`]
    /// paces its TTL sweep off a counter that every write advances, and neither
    /// override advanced it. The reasoning in the artifact one was explicit and
    /// wrong in an instructive way: an in-place delta adds no entry, so it
    /// cannot push the store past its capacity bound. True — and irrelevant to
    /// the *other* bound, because expiry is driven by elapsed time rather than
    /// by growth, so a stream that only appends to tasks already stored still
