//! The status tool: the model's view of its own situation, in the
//! thirteen lines, in that order.
//!
//! The order is not cosmetic. A model reading its status reads the top
//! first, so identity and mode come before the context reading, and that
//! comes before the long tail of locks and children. Freezing the order
//! means a Resident's habits transfer across versions instead of being
//! relearned each time the field list grows - which is why the last
//! field went on the end rather than beside the one it belongs with.
//!
//! **No ceiling is reported, because there is none**. The context
//! reading reports what bounds a run: the tokens it has actually used
//! against the window it was given.
//!
//! Nothing here samples. The snapshot is frozen at dispatch, and what
//! moves while the run goes on - its children, its backlog, its context
//! used, the time - is read from the one place that records it. The
//! time is the driver's latest reading (`crates/runtime/spec/Clock.lean` §8-53): a tool that
//! read a clock of its own would be a second sampling point in the run,
//! and its "now" could name a moment no line of the ledger records.
