// **A closed set, defined here rather than by whoever claims one.** Until this, a well-formed name
// became a seat by being claimed, so nothing could say which seats a mesh has or who fills them:
// `the-showcase` and `the-build-machine` were each invented by the module claiming it. The set is
// what a person reads to learn what a mesh can have, so an entry nobody argued for is an entry
// nobody can explain — the same reason every shape in the host's vocabulary names its decision.
//
// A seat is held by a module assignment. What the mesh knows about a holder is what it knows about
// that assignment; nothing about holders is kept here or anywhere else.

// Seat is one role the mesh defines.

	// catalogue's 72 never speak, and an ambient connection would mint a credential for each.
	//
	// Corrected twice in one day, which is worth the comment. It read `amqp`, which was the old
	// broker's interface and not this seat's; ADR 0117 emptied it, reasoning that a bus cannot be
	// provisioned; and it is neither. The bus's accounts are composed by the controller rather
	// than created by a provisioner, so nothing waits on a bus account in order to make one —
	// which is a fact about the *mechanism*, not a reason the connection cannot be required.
	//
	// `mesh-bus` is the mesh's own; `nats` is a private NATS server a module may provide as a
	// backing service, the way `amqp` is provided (ADR 0119). Never the same name.
