* — it fails safe, but it heals nobody, which is the whole point of it. Found by running the

* 🔴 "OLDER THAN US" COMPARES LIKE WITH LIKE: our own start time is read from the SAME `ps` listing
* as theirs. `ps` reports whole seconds rounded down twice (boot time, then ticks since boot) —
* measured up to 1.8 s behind the clock on Linux — so against our own millisecond clock a bridge
* started up to two seconds AFTER us looked older and was selected (stale-bridge-reap-test, red on
