Development record

abcd implement load --wait prints 'waiting for capacity: ...' once, at the first look that finds the gate shut (OnWait), and 'load gate: the machine looks free; checking everything again in Ns before opening' once (OnSettle); a waiter whose re-check finds a new blocker goes back to waiting silently. On 2026-10-23 a waiter's log read 'the machine looks free' for over half an hour while two other waiters' preflights ran ahead of it, so the log, the only thing a session reads while it waits, said the opposite of what was happening.
