One name per thing, per the HQ glossary: the module/container/image/binary/repo
becomes mesh-controller, the seat the-controller, and the store+broker pair the
foundation (embedded base bundles, default template and example lock renamed with
their go:embed directives). No behaviour change — a pure vocabulary rename.

Every scenario that places a container runtime gives each of its machines
`egress: true` — a node that runs modules pulls images from the internet, which is what
a node does. The underlay-only scenarios (bootstrap-single, behind-nat,
segmented-and-unforwardable, the-ordinary-shape, two-on-a-segment) stay sealed on
purpose: an extra NIC would change the very reachability they are asserting about.
`images:` keeps only the mesh's own — 55 third-party entries leave whole-mesh-full
alone, and the machine fetches them itself by the digest its module.json already pins.
The whole-mesh beds also say per machine which of ours they get: novox the substrate
control plane and its own fifteen runtimes, ace its twenty-four, the two workstations
one each. That is not a lab economy. An operator's workstation holds the images its own
modules need, and giving these two the union would put some thirty gigabytes onto a
thirty-gigabyte disk.
bootstrap-with-registry.yml is deleted. It existed only to demonstrate the lab's
registry, nothing referenced it, and there is nothing left for it to demonstrate.

A sealed scenario cannot install wireguard-tools any more than it can install a
container runtime, so a lab without them cannot test connectivity at all --
which is most of what the mesh does between machines. Installed and not
started: what a node runs is the mesh's decision, and a lab that brought the
interface up itself would be testing its own setup.
growing-mesh exists to be grown. The point is not the third machine, it is that
adding one changes every other node's peer list -- so each has to be told
again, or the newcomer is on a network nobody else can see.
