    /// The future is lazy. Cancellation before dispatch prevents submission; blocking workers check again before execution. Once submitted, cancellation is best effort, and a successful completion wins a concurrent cancellation request. Dropping the future cannot undo synchronization; the backend retains the file until access ends.
