Every review finding on the browser host was in the same forty lines: the fallback from a SharedWorker to a per-tab worker. Two kinds of worker that can both come up is a race, and each fix moved it rather than removed it. The fallback existed for a browser we don't target (Android Chrome, no SharedWorker) and a tooling limitation. Without it the invariant holds by browser guarantee — one SharedWorker per origin — with the Web Lock covering the one overlap the browser doesn't rule out, a reloading tab's dying predecessor. Reconnect-on-silence stays, but reconnects to the same kind. Browsers without SharedWorker or Web Locks get a clear message. Verified in production builds: 8/8 reloads render, two tabs coherent, unsupported browsers see the message.
