138/// The winning log rows for one fold, before they are applied to a base state.
139///
140/// Absence and disappearance are different facts, and a merge is where the
141/// difference starts to matter. A full fold from nothing can treat "this entity
142/// went away" and "there is no row for it" identically — both end as absence.
143/// Composed onto a snapshot they are opposites: a disappearance must *remove*
144/// the entity the snapshot carries, and skipping it leaves the snapshot's stale
145/// row standing as though nothing had happened. So they are collected rather
146/// than dropped, and the full fold applies them to an empty base, which keeps
147/// one code path for both cases (D-049).
148///
149/// **There is one such set, not two (D-072).** It used to carry `edges_gone`
150/// beside `concepts_gone`, and both were populated only from the `'D'` branch of
151/// [`fold_delta`] — so when that branch became an error, `edges_gone` was left
152/// reachable by nothing. Closing one unreachable path by opening another is not
153/// a fix, so it went too.
154///
155/// The asymmetry is real and worth stating, because "concepts can vanish and
156/// edges cannot" looks like an oversight until you follow it:
157///
158/// * A **concept** disappears by being *retired*, which writes a `'U'` row whose
159///   payload has `retired = 1`. That is a genuine removal from a composed state
160///   and `concepts_gone` carries it.
161/// * An **edge** never disappears. It is retired by asserting a successor over
162///   the same interval key — same `source|target|type|valid_from`, later
163///   `recorded_at` — so the log row is an `'I'` under the *same* `entity_id`, and
164///   last-writer-wins in [`Self::apply_to`] replaces the tuple in place. There is
165///   nothing to remove because nothing left; the interval simply closed.
166///
167/// That is Doctrine III showing through: an edge assertion is immutable and
168/// superseded, never deleted.

557/// Whether the hot log alone can answer for `ts` — a *completeness* test.
558///
559/// **This replaces a reach test that was not one (0.5.5).** The previous version
560/// asked `MIN(recorded_at) <= ts`: whether the hot log stretches back far enough
561/// to contain `ts`. That is a different question from whether it still contains
562/// everything needed to answer at `ts`, and `LOG_ARCHIVABLE` (§5.7) is exactly
563/// what pulls the two apart — it removes *superseded* rows, scattered through
564/// the sequence rather than forming a prefix. One entity archived and another
565/// not is enough: the unarchived one keeps `MIN` pointing before the cutoff
566/// while the archived one's winning row is gone, and the fold silently returns a
567/// state missing an entity. Measured, not theorised — see
568/// `reconstructing_before_the_archive_cutoff_keeps_every_entity`.
569///
570/// The sound test rests on the one guarantee the archive does make: **the newest
571/// row per entity is never archivable**, because archivability requires a later
572/// row to exist. So if `ts` is at or after the newest hot stamp, every entity's
573/// winning row at `ts` is its newest row overall, and every such row is hot.
574/// That covers `reconstruct(now)` — the common case, and the case §5.7 designed
575/// `LOG_ARCHIVABLE` around — and nothing else.
576///
577/// Anything earlier goes to the cold file. That is more ATTACHes than the old
578/// rule performed, and the trade is not close: the old rule was cheaper because
579/// it was answering a question nobody asked.
580///
581/// With no archive database in play the reach test *is* the completeness test —

639/// was to adopt it "only if it wants the richer message". C4 asked for the
640/// message and found the marker cannot supply it, because the proposed message —
641/// *"this database was archived on X; pass the archive path"* — is **weaker**
642/// than what the hot log already carries:
643///
644/// * *how many rows went* is `MAX(seq_id) - COUNT(*)`, exact for the reason
645///   [`hot_log_is_intact`] gives;
646/// * *how far back the hot file still reaches* is `MIN(seq_id)` and its
647///   `recorded_at` — which is the fact that actually tells a caller whether the
648///   archive is worth fetching, and which a marker's archive **timestamp** does
649///   not give them;
650/// * *that archiving happened at all* is the one bit [`hot_log_is_intact`]
651///   already answers.
652///
653/// The only datum a marker would add is the wall-clock instant of the last
654/// archive run, and no branch and no caller needs it. So the marker is refused
655/// outright rather than deferred again: under
656/// [D-036](../../docs/architecture/s13-decision-register.md) a hot-table addition
657/// lands pre-1.0 or not at all, and a table whose whole content is a timestamp
658/// used in one error string is not worth a rung.
659///
660/// # There is no "nothing was archived" case, and that was settled by injection
661///
662/// This first carried a branch for `removed == 0`, on the reasoning that the
663/// `NeedsArchive` arm is reachable without any archiving. That reasoning was
664/// **wrong about where the cost lands and right about the branch**, and only a
665/// probe told the two apart: replacing the branch body with a panic showed it
666/// firing from `a_failed_cold_reconstruct_still_detaches`, a test that raises
667/// nothing from here — because the hint was being computed *before* the two
668/// arms that use it, on every cold fold. Made lazy, the probe went quiet across
669/// all 27 targets.
670///
671/// So the branch was dead at the use sites: both arms require
672/// [`hot_log_is_intact`] to have returned false, or an archive file to have
673/// existed when `hot_log_reach` looked and to have gone by the time this did.
674/// Rows really were removed in every case that gets here, and the message may
675/// say so without qualification. Deleted rather than kept as a defensive
676/// fallback, for the reason `delete_guarded` records about
677/// `classify_archive_violation`: unreachable code that looks reasonable is
678/// harder to remove later than now.
679///
680/// Best-effort by construction: this runs on the error path, where a second

718///
719/// # Why this question needs answering at all
720///
721/// With `ts` below the hot log's floor and no archive file present, the state
722/// on disk is consistent with two very different histories: **nothing was ever
723/// archived**, in which case the hot log is the whole log and the answer to
724/// *what was believed at `ts`* is "nothing yet"; or **rows were archived and
725/// the cold file is gone**, in which case the answer is unknowable and saying
726/// "nothing" would be inventing one. Before this, the two were conflated and
727/// both raised — which made an ordinary question about a young database report
728/// the ledger as damaged.
729///
730/// # Why `seq_id` settles it, with no marker and no schema change
731///
732/// `transaction_log.seq_id` is `INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT`, so values
733/// are allocated 1, 2, 3, … and **never reused**. A rolled-back transaction
734/// leaves no gap — `sqlite_sequence` rolls back with it, which
735/// [D-049](../../docs/architecture/s13-decision-register.md) established by
736/// measurement after assuming the opposite. So the only thing that can perturb
737/// the sequence is deletion, and `trg_txlog_guard_delete` confines deletion to
738/// an archive session.
739///
740/// Therefore: if nothing was removed, the ids are exactly `1..=MAX` and
741/// `COUNT(*) == MAX(seq_id)` with `MIN(seq_id) == 1`. And conversely — this is
742/// the half that makes it a proof rather than a heuristic — those two equalities
743/// force the set of `COUNT` distinct ids inside `[1, MAX]` to be all of it, so
744/// nothing is missing. The test is exact in both directions, not merely
745/// suggestive.
746///
747/// **It does not depend on the archive removing a contiguous block**, which it
748/// does not: `archive()` removes *superseded* rows scattered through the
749/// sequence. Scattered removal leaves interior gaps, which fails the count
750/// equality; removal from the front raises `MIN` above 1. Removal from the end
751/// cannot happen, because the newest row per entity is never archivable.
752///
753/// # What it deliberately does not claim
754///
755/// Nothing about *when* the archiving happened or *what* went, which is what
756/// the rejected hot-side marker would have carried. It answers one bit, and one
