+**What scroll looks like on e-ink:** every line-scroll is a partial refresh
+of the full edit area — every line moves, there is no small dirty rect for
+scroll — so each scroll costs ~200–300 ms. Per-keystroke partial refreshes
+accumulate ghosting; the render module clears it by upgrading every 20th
+refresh to a full refresh, deferred to the next idle pause ≥ 1 s so it
+usually lands during a thinking moment rather than mid-burst (implementation:
+[v0.1 technical → render](v0.1-mvp-technical.md#render--dirty-rect-to-epd)).
+`Ctrl-S` and `Ctrl-G` also force a full refresh. Net user experience:
+smooth-ish line scrolling while typing, occasional ~1 s flash on a pause or
+a save.
