Enrolling IS the machine speaking to the mesh, so straight after it the mesh has
always heard from this node — and the step took that as proof an agent was
running and skipped starting one.
The cost is silent and total. Everything after is the control plane being told
things, and nothing it is told reaches a machine with no agent to collect it: the
registry push at step 7 was accepted, the module recorded, and no container ever
created. It surfaced three minutes later as 'the registry is not there at all',
one step from its cause and looking nothing like it.
Both halves are asked now. A process may be wedged and collect nothing, which is
why the mesh is asked at all; and the mesh may have heard once from a machine
running nothing, which is why the machine is asked too.
