+- **A-323** (§49, §268; principle 3) The assigner and the node-engine on one node are an acting cycle of delivery edges
+  only (compose and place), so they are delivered as one step (§49), never held by each other: the assigner writes that
+  node's node-engine want first, held by nothing but its build (§268), and holds the node's other wants, its own included,
+  until the node-engine seat says the new version runs there. The acting-wait check finds a cycle across steps as well as
