The indexer judged only the manifests its modules state holds, so a digest refused by an older judge (node-tools 48c729f6 and mesh-provisioner-client a382b9df, refused for words then unknown) kept that refusal once it was back on the trunk or in a candidate. Each such digest is now judged alone, in the catalogue the trunk holds, writing its verdict and nothing else; an accepted verdict stays accepted under any later judge (ADR 0579 §1), so only a refused or waiting verdict by another judge, or none, is judged again.
