The half of the module system that was built and never proved. Unassigning i3 removed i3's file AND xorg's, because xorg was only there to satisfy i3 -- the node's own record agrees, and the resolution the mesh sends no longer mentions either. That works because a declaration removes what the mesh previously declared and nothing else, which is 04-ISSUES/010's fix carrying its weight here: the substrate the machine raised for itself is untouched by any of it. Tests for the storage layer, which had none. The ones worth naming: A module a machine is running cannot be forgotten -- not a fault, it means the mesh would lose the ability to describe what is on that machine. Removing a node DOES take its assignments, and the asymmetry is deliberate: a node that is gone cannot be running anything. A node that has never reported has NO capabilities rather than all of them. That refuses anything needing one, which is wrong but visible -- where assuming it can do everything would assign work it cannot do and find out on the machine. And a capability the node reported as ABSENT is not counted: reading the list without the verdict would let a module onto a machine that said no. `overlay push` is gone, replaced by `push`, which sends a node its network and its modules as one declaration. Two commands that overlap is how a mesh ends up half-configured by whichever was run. The old name answers with where to go, and answers before opening a database -- needing one would turn a redirect into a connection error.
