Drop magic adverbs (silently, arguably), a stakes-inflation flourish,
and the bold-first Snippets bullets; de-duplicate the "usable artifact,
not a checkpoint" line shared by the README and roadmap.
Replace the header/status-bar layout with a full-height writing column
plus an always-visible side panel holding all metadata. Canonicalize the
new region vocabulary in CONTEXT.md (Writing column, Side panel) and retire
header / status line / edit area as terms-to-avoid.
Consequent sweeps: rewrite the Error UX section in side-panel terms and
give keyboard-disconnect a home (⌨ ✗, disconnect-only); drop the "line N"
readout; reconcile the render module ops and region shadow; sweep the
status-line/edit-area wording across the technical, roadmap, qfd, notes,
README, and ADR-003 docs (incl. the ~11→~13 line-count figure).
The post's job is to land the timing question and the apocalypse
reframe — Wi-Fi rationale, optimisation diversions, and generalising
reflections were overexpansion. Cut.
Long-form rationale for the "durability before delivery" framing —
why a 10-second network operation in response to a single keystroke
doesn't have to feel slow. Establishes docs/notes/ as the home for
shareable design rationale (not authoritative spec).
