The board says what is waiting too, or it disagrees with the command

Adding "not running what the mesh would send it" to `status` and not to the
board would have left two answers to one question with a person in front of
each — which is the single thing this page's design forbids, introduced by the
change that was supposed to make the question answerable.

The published JSON carries it as well, so the page, the command and anything
built against either say the same thing from the same read. Additive, because
that shape is hard to change once anything is built against it.

Never told stays separate from out of date on the page as it is everywhere
else: same remedy, and nobody has ever asked that machine to be anything.
